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
This is a dangerous route. If you fall before you get to the first bolt it could have dire consequences. There are two closely-spaced bolts then a long runout to the anchors which are shared with the first pitch of Twinkle Toes Traverse. The rock is so-so. Proceed with caution.
One can either proceed upward on the second pitch of Twinkle Toes Traverse or rappel about 60' back to the big ledge.
Location
Miller Time starts at the very left edge of the big ledge which is used to approach Twinkle Toes Traverse. Climb up and onto the face just left of the right-facing dihedral which forms the start of Twinkle Toes Traverse.
One can also start about 30 below just above the trail which heads up and right toward the aforementioned ledge. This dramatically increases the danger level of this climb.
