Rock Run is a bouldering area in Pennsylvania's McIntyre Wild Area, managed by the State Department of Natural Resources. It sits among a cluster of climbing spots, with the Ridge Area about half a mile away and the Main Area roughly a mile off. The closest town is Canton, about 10 miles away. The climbing here is all bouldering, with two routes listed: Unknown Soldier at V2 and High Noon Sit Start at V5. Both are boulder problems, and the grades suggest a range from relatively easy to more challenging. For timing, late spring and early fall are the most comfortable. Typical averages from the nearby Canton weather station show May highs around 69°F and September highs around 72°F, with July the warmest month at about 81°F. Other nearby options include the Sullivan Mountain Loop hike about a mile away and the Old Loggers Path cross-country ski trail under a mile off.
