The National Park Service asks that climbers choose not to climb the Tower during the month of June. The June voluntary climbing closure was selected as part of the Devils Tower Climbing Management Plan by a working group that included two climber organizations, two American Indian organizations, and other agency and local government representatives.
Climbers are strongly encouraged to consider enjoying the many other climbing options available in northeast Wyoming and the Black Hills area of South Dakota, during the month of June.

Rock climbing routes on the East and Northeast Faces of Devils Tower summit will be temporarily closed to protect nesting Peregrine and Prairie Falcons.
Description
This Devils Tower forbidden classic is often overlooked in favor of its many mediocre neighbors (like Mr. Clean). This route forces you to use all of your finely honed Tower skills, including wide stemming, face climbing, and desperate jamming, all while using gear you would not want to hang your grandmother's underwear off of. Fabulous movement with 5-star tenuous stances. You just might pee pee your pants.
Do not miss this route! Beware: Devils Tower Rangers have been known to ticket climbers who ignore this ultra-mega-classic.
