The beta

McIntyre Wild Area is a bouldering area at Rock Run in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania, near Ralston. It has 14 problems from v2 to v9 across 4 boulders, with a 20-minute approach.

Outcrops and a few freestanding boulders overlooking Rock Run Valley. Small cluster of extremely high quality stone. A rope is suggested for chalking up the tall boulders and a rehearsal if need. The main section of the best boulders are highlighted. The ridgeline continues SW for about 2 miles with more pockets of rock. Explore!

From the parking, hike back down hill for 3 minutes (117 yards) looking for a old grade on your right. Hike up the old grade for 5 minutes (120 yards) until you near the top and see an old flat road heading left. Take this road for 6 minutes (160 yards). Once you spot the boulders on the rim to the right, hike up the steep hill towards them in about 5+ minutes (170 yards).

Micro approach

Follow the logging roads until you can approach the base of the boulderfield. It is best to approach prior to the large freestanding blocks.
