Access Issue: Seasonal Peregrine Closure
Details
The park closes on February 1st and remains closed until July 15th to protect nesting peregrine falcons. Their annual nesting spot is on the Shining Wall, though they can be heard year-round. Please respect the closure and DO NOT CLIMB AT MADRONE WALL BETWEEN FEB 1st AND JULY 15th. Updates to the status of the park will posted on Clackamas County Park's website - clackamas.us/parks/madronew… - and on the Madrone Wall Preservation Committee facebook page - facebook.com/madronewall/.
Description
Do the direct start to Tangerine Dream, a little grovelly, and then edge through a short but spectacular face section. Shake out at a flake jug before committing to the crux bulge.
Here you can power up to the "knob-pocket" and head left, using a sloping series of rails and a heal hook to gain a big flake, or more straight up from the "knob-pocket" doing a mantle/press to a sloping ball-crimp. Either way is hard! Like really hard!
Rest a bit and end in the shallow dihedral via lock-offs, lie-backing, and keeping your freshly noodled arms in check. Don't fall clipping the anchors - that would be heart breaking.
