Access Issue: Always check SEKI road conditions and peregrine closures Details

The SeKi Rock Climbing website nps.gov/seki/planyourvisit/… has current closures as well as other climbing information for visitors.

Moro Rock (SEKI) and Chimney Rocks usually have nesting closures every year from April 1 to August 15.

As of April 2016, all routes are open to climbing.

Description

This beautiful alpine peak sits directly above Spring Lake, near the top of Cliff Creek Canyon. The lake is located at about 10,000 feet, and the summit of the peak is roughly 11,400 feet.

There are at least three documented routes on the wall. Many of the crack and corner systems are quite vegetated, making climbing potentially time consuming.

Getting There

It's probably best to hike from Mineral King to Monarch Lake and then go over Granite Pass to reach the wall. This involves about 5-6,000 feet of elevation change.

Alternately, you can go over Timber Gap and ascend Cliff Creek to Spring Lake.
