Access Issue: Peregrine Falcons in Maine Details

Maine Peregrine Falcons breeding season extends from mid-March through July or August. Hiking or climbing near nesting peregrines can cause abandonment and death of eggs/young. If adults are away from the nest, eggs or young can become overheated, chilled, or chicks can miss feedings. Be on the lookout for agitated falcons that may vocalize, take avoidance flights, or dive-bomb those that are too close. If you encounter an aggressive peregrine falcon please immediately leave the area, and report incidents to Erynn Call, State Raptor Specialist, MDIFW, erynn.call@maine.gov.

Description

80ft crag with a great south and north western view. Busted up granite for the most part except the far eastern side that has a schist slab base and a harder granite composite ceiling complex at the upper section.

[ Additional beta, 3/5/18, R Hall Admin. - Driving around back roads and peering through trees, I finally got a view of the face of this cliff and it's a bit more than the "80 ft" Brad implies; I think Brad was talking about the 80ft of steep cliff above quite a distance of slab. ]

Getting There

From the intersection of Me. 5 and Me. 5A in Center Lovell, take Me. 5 north, follow for 1.5 miles, turn right on the uphill gravel road, follow this to the parking area. Walk less than a mile to summit. Scramble down past the western side to the crag's base and walk to the eastern side.
