Access Issue: Seasonal raptor closures - 5/6/23 update: Nixon Head is closed for raptors. Details

Adding new bolts, new anchors, and new routes at the Black Cliffs are currently NOT ALLOWED pending a BLM environmental assessment. Significant trail work is also on hold. Please contact the Boise Climbers Alliance with questions or for additional information

Description

Fun climbing that starts out easy in a small vertical open book with a crack and ample holds. At the top of the open book move right and get ready for the business! Ascend the overhanging corner/finger-crack above to the anchors.

Location

Open book a few feet right of the flying circus.

Protection

6 bolts + a 2 bolt anchor.

This is another route that originally went on gear and was subsequently retro-bolted. Lots of opportunity for good gear in the initial open book, with some potential for more creative placements up higher...
