Revolutionary Ramparts is a climbing area in Harriman State Park in New York, managed by State Park and Recreation. It sits among several other climbing spots and trails, with History of Flight: Lower tier, High Heel Boulder and Swamp King all about 0.1 mile away, and the White Diamond Trail just as close. The area has four mixed routes, with grades ranging from 5.3 to 5.10+. The easiest is The Rookie at 5.3, and the hardest is Immelman Direct at 5.10+. For timing, late spring and early fall are the most comfortable. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 71°F and September highs around 76°F, with July peaking near 84°F. That station sits a few hundred feet lower than the park, so temperatures on the ramparts run a little cooler.
