A quick stop at Otter Cliffs, on the way to the Precipice Trail.

Looking up toward Champlain Mountain. The tiny red dot is a person.

The first obstacles, a nice scramble.

The end of the scramble before entering the woods.


Protected dropoff with fun wooden bridges.

The railing system makes the beginning of the Precipice Trail less dangerous.

Following the side of the rocky cliff.

Down some blocky steps on the edge of the cliff face.

A small stairmaster before the scariest part of the trail.

Fun Class 3 obstacles along the way.

The major portion of metal rungs leading to the summit.

Steep section with handhold rungs.

The final stretch, right along the cliff face.

My brother staying close to the cliff.

Cool lookouts overlooking what would normally be the ocean, if not for the fog.

Overlooking the ocean from the Champlain Mountain summit.

Summit of Champlain Mountain.

Heading down from Champlain Mountain. Nice puddles embedded in the slickrock trail.

Staircase to go down from Champlain Mountain to complete the loop.
