Access Issue: 2023 Seasonal Falcon Closure
Details
A temporary closure of Mt. Minsi within Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area (DEWA) to climbing and hiking will be in effect starting February 14, 2023 to protect nesting peregrine falcons.
The closure is: "The cliffs at Mount Minsi from Point of Gap parking lot to Arrow Island parking lot, from the west shoulder of Route 611 to the top of the ridge, in the Pennsylvania District, will be closed to rock climbing and hiking through approximately early August to prevent human disturbance to nesting peregrine falcons."
Official designated trails are not affected by this closure, meaning hikers can still use Arrow Island Trail and the Appalachian Trail. Official trails and maps are located on the park website at: nps.gov/dewa/planyourvisit/…
Closure signage will be posted near the parking areas.

Description
PG/R. Make sure you are skilled at placing protection before leading this one.
Pitch 1: Six feet right of Surprise's open book, climb the face, passing the right side of small ceiling with a serrated lip, then pass the left side of a second ceiling, and finally pass the right side of a third ceiling. Now climb the face at a crack to a belay ledge.
Pitch 2: Move out the center of the large ceiling above and into a left-facing corner system to the top.
