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
A small bit of trickery will get you slightly off the ground which lends to an awkward overhead clip that you will wish you had waited until you climbed up 10 inches higher to clip. After that wander up and ever so slightly left on the easy ramp to the second bolt. Then traverse right a little bit and clip the 3rd bolt before tackling the bulge. You will want to climb a little right of the bolt to keep it in the 5.8 range and high step right will put your foot on the only foothold around. Continue up easier ground to the 4th bolt which hides until you are on it. A short steep section gets you to the top but the holds are positive. Long slings at the anchor recommended to reduce rope drag.
