Yosemite National Park has yearly closures for Peregrine Falcon Protection March 1- July 15. Always check the NPS website at nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/… for the most current details and park alerts, and to learn more about the peregrine falcon, and how closures help it survive. This page also shares closures and warnings due to current fires, smoke, etc.
Description
Head into the back of the chimney and up. The Reid guide gives this 5.7 R, but I think most will have a hard time finding any mandatory 5.7 moves. Fun addition to the olmsted offwidth circuit.
This also makes a great solo, due the the nature of the chimney you can never really fall all that far.
To descend walk left and rappel of the anchors for The Thrill Is Gone. If you went without rope keep walking left until you can walk down a gulley.
