Access Issue: Seasonal Raptor Closure at Newhalem Crags March 1st to mid-July
Details
Peregrine falcons select nest sites on cliffs in the Upper Skagit Valley, including the Climbing Management Areas of Newhalem West (Ryan’s Wall) and Newhalem East. As required in the NPS Superintendent’s Compendium, these areas will be closed to all public from March 1st to July 15th of each year, or until the young falcons have fledged or NPS staff have determined that nesting will not occur on a specific wall during this period. Access Fund, Washington Climbers Coalition and NPS partner on a volunteer raptor monitoring program to determine nesting activity. Contact the NPS and/or WCC for updates.
Description
This line goes up the obvious crack to the right of Valley of Bones, up to the top of the rock and then traverses left to the final bolt of that route, continuing to the VOB anchors. The crack is 5.9 and the face traverse is 5.10a. The crack is awkward in more ways than one, but life finds a way. I'm a huge fan of traverses, and the one on this route did not disappoint.
I find it hard to imagine that this hasn't been done before, so if it has message me with details of the ascent and we'll update the info.
