About DFO:

100 foot cliff finishing in the ocean of trad and sport routes.
Nearest town or city: St John's
Directions: From St John's, go to Quidi Vidi lake. Follow the lake on The Blvd. Then left onto E White Hills Rd. Take the second road on the right to go to the DFO (department of fisheries and oceans) building. Find a nice dirt road going in the North-east direction and park there before the gate. From there, follow the dirt road (~20 minutes) which goes down to the ocean. At the end of the dirt road take the East Coast trail toward the south. After walking a few hundreds meters in the wood you should find a trail on the left living the main trail. Shortly after being on that secondary trail you reach the access to the routes. You can rappel down from four different spots (trees are available to set up the rope).

Access Issues: Rappelling is the only way to get to the beginning of the routes. A fix rope of at least 60 meters is necessary to get to the bottom.
