Access Issue: Seasonal Raptor Closure
Details
Every spring, Washington State Parks, WDFW, Access Fund, and Washington Climbers Coalition partner to identify the nest site of Index's Peregrine falcons. Once identified, a spot closure is instituted around the selected nest site through approximately July 15th. Report potential raptor nesting activity to info@washingtonclimbers.org. Big thanks to WDFW and the climbers who are assisting with the Index Volunteer Raptor Monitoring Program this year, and to Patagonia & Feathered Friends for additional support of the Newhalem and Index raptor programs!
Description
A destroyer of a route that both epitomizes an aesthetic rock climb and will make you want to show up taller and stronger than you are. The line takes an obvious clean path up a steep arete starting with moderate face climbing which leads into a powerful and well protected crux. Being tall may ease difficulties.
Location
This spectacular gem is found on its own solitary feature. The climb is about 8-10 minutes of bush walking past Foodbar then Fire wall on your left side. You will continue down the canyon via path of least resistance until the wall is visible on right (east)? Side of the canyon, it easier to stay on the left (west) side and cross once you can see the climb.
