Fish and Wildlife and Washington Climbers Coalition have worked together to
coordinate protection of a peregrine falcon nest located on the climbing wall.
Climbing at Substation, Write-Off Rock, Nevermind Wall, We Did Rock, and Hull
Creek Rock are unaffected by the closure and remain open.
If you have any questions about the closure, please contact Ranger Oakley at 425-832-2163.
Description
This route has been incorrectly called Wild Goat, fyi. Old Milwaukee Road is what the FA called it.
From the east end of the concrete bridge climbs up and slightly right on easy terrain. Reach left to clip a bolt at head height then do a airy maneuver to the left to gain positive holds. Straight up from there leads to a left trending somewhat chossy corner/chimney with three very closely space bolts. I was able to rap it with a 60M .
Awesome, well-protected first 10a route for all ages. The crux is right at the big block, but a big jug awaits to get you out.
