Access Issue: This area is closed to public use, each year, during February 15 - July 31 to protect nesting Peregrine Falcons. Details

The closure area includes all cliffs and trails south of the abandoned Artmore Plastics building.
Peregrine Falcons are a state and federally protected bird.
Human disturbance can cause nest abandonment and the loss of eggs and chicks.
Viewing the Peregrines is possible from along the Great Allegheny Passage Trail as it passes through The Cumberland Narrows.

Description

This area is the next crag to the north of the expansive area known as Cumberhoney Wall. There is a fair amount of junk at along the base of the crag undoubtedly tossed from where the road runs closest to the top of the crag.

For a more thorough description of the entire area and adjacent climbing areas check out Indy's Guide at "http://indy-adventures.net/climbing/guide.html"

Getting There

This area starts about 700' north of the Jim Pick rock cairn. The arete that marks the south/climber's right end of the area is about 50' north of the large roof that is the crux of "I Wanna Live". The second arete after "I Wanna Live" is Little Jimmie's Arete which is also where the trail directly meets the wall again (in Sisters' Corner).
