Access Issue: Seasonal Raptor Closure at Newhalem Crags March 1st to mid-July
Details
Peregrine falcons select nest sites on cliffs in the Upper Skagit Valley, including the Climbing Management Areas of Newhalem West (Ryan’s Wall) and Newhalem East. As required in the NPS Superintendent’s Compendium, these areas will be closed to all public from March 1st to July 15th of each year, or until the young falcons have fledged or NPS staff have determined that nesting will not occur on a specific wall during this period. Access Fund, Washington Climbers Coalition and NPS partner on a volunteer raptor monitoring program to determine nesting activity. Contact the NPS and/or WCC for updates.
Description
This is a very unique and must do experience! A mix of spelunking and chimney climbing await the adventurous.
Enter from the northern side. Side step your way through the chasm until you see daylight on the other side. Chimney climb up the southern side of the boulder. Many ways to do this but the most convenient path can be found where a leftward leaning diagonal crack on the eastern side provides good hand holds to get established.
Location
From the main trail just after rounding bend past Main Wall head down among the boulders. Scramble over to the largest boulder with the obvious wide crack down the middle.
Enter from the northern side. The chimney crack runs through a large roof with a gnarly looking chockstone that looms overhead.
