The footbridge will be closed for replacement from August 14 - September 23, 2023
The old bridge was built nearly 50 years ago and reconstructed about 30 years ago. The new bridge will measure 8 feet wide, about 2 feet wider than the current bridge, and better accommodate visitors and first responders during the park’s frequent rescue operations. There will be no temporary bridge, and Oregon Parks and Recreation Department discourages wading across the river due to sensitive habitat and safety concerns.
Trails that will stay open include:
Rim Rock Trail
Homestead Trail
Rope-de-Dope Trail
Canyon Trail
North Point loop
Climbing areas accessible during construction include:
North Point area (accessible from the Homestead and North Point loop trails)
Rope-de-Dope boulder (accessible from the Rope-de-Dope trail and Canyon Trail)
The Lower Gorge (Climber Access routes)
There are many seasonal raptor closures with varying dates and specific boundaries. These generally effect The Monument, Kiss of the Lepers, Picnic Lunch Wall and/or Smith Rock group, and possibly elsewhere. These usually run from February to the beginning of August, but each closure is usually shorter than this, and is dependent on the birds' behavior.

Entry Fee
Located on the right side of The Hank Collins Memorial Wall, Entry Fee was the first route established on this large monolith sitting at the right side base of The Monument. Start out on a dirty flake of completely compressed mud. Standing on the mud flake you clip bolt 1 on good holds. Layback your way up a flake system and clip bolt 2. Establish yourself onto the face and climb on good holds up to bolt 5. The crux lays between bolt 6 and 7. After clipping bolt 7, keep working up and right on jugs to the fixed anchors.
7 bolts, fixed steel anchors
