Access Issue: Road and Raptor Closures Details

Per Ross Andrea: Ramparts Range Road is closed December 1.

March 1st-July 31st: Devil's Head Rock, Sin City, & Recovery Wall are closed for raptor protection. The vast majority of the other crags are unaffected by the closure. Please visit:
fs.usda.gov/alerts/psicc/al… for additional information and maps.

Description

Devil's Rejects is a large ~250 foot tall buttress that towers over Jackson Creek Road just south-southwest of Sin City and the Recovery Wall. There is plenty of new sport potential for hard slab routes along with some quality trad routes.

This area falls into the seasonal falcon closure at Devil's Head and is closed from March 1 to July 31.

Getting There

Drive ~13 miles south of the Rampart Range Road – well past the turn for the Devil's Head lookout tower trail and camping area. After a set of sharp switchbacks, turn left onto Jackson Creek Road (FS 502) and drive ~1.5 miles to a primitive campsite on the left, just past a meadow. If you reach the turn for the closed Jackson Creek campground on the right, you have driven too far.

Start up the Recovery Wall trail (the one that climbs west out of the campsite), but before turning north to Recovery Wall, begin bushwhacking west-southwest towards the obvious buttress with a large roof. The approach takes approximately 20-30 minutes.
