Abstract
John Anderson, a longtime climber, traces the signs of technical climbers on New Jersey’s cliffs in the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s. He shares evidence that Fritz Wiessner may have pioneered routes, and the Tenth Mountain Division used the rock for training. Routes scale Windbeam, Kanouse, Green Pond, and Copperas Mountains.
