Yosemite National Park has yearly closures for Peregrine Falcon Protection March 1- July 15. Always check the NPS website at nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/… for the most current details and park alerts, and to learn more about the peregrine falcon, and how closures help it survive. This page also shares closures and warnings due to current fires, smoke, etc.
Description
A unique and classic problem.
Stand start and head up the crack using painful 1-digit locks and tiny crimps. A nearly-footless traverse on edges leads to better holds below the lip. Getting up to and over the lip is intimidating but not difficult.
Warning: There is no downclimb off this boulder. Have a rope and harness ready; there's a bolt with a quick link next to the mantel. Another more terrifying option could be to reverse the mantel and drop off.
Location
Follow directions for Lower Cathedral Boulders. The path goes straight to a big cluster of boulders; Do-Bop is facing away from the road.
