Closures effective as of the day after Martin Luther King Day- July 3. Check closure website for details on closed areas.
SPECIAL NOTICE: Condors have been establishing nests at the Pinnacles National Monument. Since condors develop to fledgling more slowly than raptors and vultures closures due to condor nesting is extended past the usual Martin Luther King Day to July 3rd. Again, please check the "Current Raptor Advisory" section of the NPS website and/or the Friends of Pinnacles website for current closures.
As of July 2024 there are three active Condor nests at Pinnacles National Park.
The Machete Ridge area is closed from Pigeon Crack on west face then west around the south side to The Hideout including the popular Old Original.
All climbing routes at Crowley Towers are closed.
All routes on the Yaks and Yaks Wall plus Marauder.
Description
An historic and enjoyable route. Climb the first pitch of the Regular Route and belay. The first, short, pitch of this route traverses right(north) on the ledge to the corner at the junction of the east and north faces where there are three bolts for a belay.
The second pitch climbs directly up the corner past one bolt to a two-bolt anchor on top of the Monolith.
To descend, walk over to the east face and descend via one of the multiple anchors on this wall.
