Chapel

Chapel is a bouldering area in Maryland, about 0.3 miles from the town of Evergreen. It sits right next to the Stony Run Walking Path, which makes it an easy addition to a short walk in the area. The climbing here is bouldering only, with one route listed: "Grow Ups on the quad," a V3- boulder problem first climbed by Alex Mitsopoulos. That grade puts it in the mid-range of bouldering difficulty, so it works well for climbers looking for a single, focused session on a small crag. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from the nearby Cylburn weather station show May highs around 73°F and October highs around 66°F, while July averages climb to about 86°F. Other climbing is close by. Rocky Gorge Reservoir (T. Howard Duckett Reservoir) is about 3.2 miles away, and Leakin Park is about 4.9 miles away. For a walk, the Spicebush Trail and Ravine Trail are both within about 2 miles.
