Right End is a climbing area in the Hammond Pond Wild Forest in New York, managed by the State Department of Conservation. The name suggests it is one end of a bouldering or climbing line, and the Left End sits about 0.1 mile away. The Main Cliff is also about 0.1 mile away. Summer is the most comfortable time to climb here. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Lake Placid show July highs around 74°F with lows near 54°F. That station sits about 730 feet lower than this area, so temperatures here run cooler. The A: Lake Champlain Region climbing area is about 0.8 mile away, and Sharp Bridge Campground is about 1.4 miles off. For time off the rock, the East Mill flow trail is about 1.5 miles away and the Underwood Canyon path is about 2.7 miles away.
