Access Issue: 2023 Seasonal Raptor Nesting Closures
Details
JULY 5 UPDATE FROM PARK MANAGEMENT:
ALL SEASONAL CLIMBING CLOSURES FOR CLIMBING AND SLACKLINING WILL BE LIFTED ON FRIDAY, JULY 7TH THIS WEEK.
THANKS, EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP IN OBSERVING RESTRICTIONS DURING THE NESTING SEASON!
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. Check this site for details:

Description
One of the steeper routes at Smith begins with the same start as Sweet as Hank, climbing up the near vertical slab to the base of the overhang. Go clip the last bolt on the slab on the right and begin up good holds on the steep overhang. This short overhang serves a quick pump and one of the most heartbreaking finishes in the park. You can almost smell the steel of the chains at the final crux!
Protection
Fixed anchors with steel carabiners. Fixed draws most of the time
Location
Starts of the most left route on the wall, starting up high off the ramp. At the top of the slab, follow the right bolt line.
