Starting in 2026 they have instituted a heat warning policy that says on "heat advisory" days that you must be out of the gorge by noon. They will tell you this when you obtain your permit. You should assume in the summer months that this policy will be enforced every day and they will enforce it
Climbing access is not allowed during whitewater releases and aesthetic water releases.
For water release schedule and further information please check the park's website, gastateparks.org/TallulahGorge.
Potential for seasonal raptor closures. Typically it's just around certain routes and the whole climbing area isn't closed
Description
This is the easiest route on the Slab. First 30' of pro is in hollow flakes(micro/small cams), nothing harder than 5.8 or 5.9. after that you get a bomber BD #3 in the beginning of the right facing corner. follow the corner to a small horizontal crack that takes med sized tcu. from there straight up onto the face (now entering crux). pull crux moves and continue up. fixed pins are where the old belay was, but are now rusted and broken off. Anchor on slung horn and little tree. rap from tree.
