Access Issue: Access Issue: Seasonal Nesting Bird Closure: Details

The following routes on the Memorial Wall will be closed April 1st - August 31st at Volunteer Canyon :

"The Parity Prow"
"Drop the Hammer"
"Baby Dinosaur"

The USFS will be frequently monitoring the Peregrine Falcons so that they can open areas as soon as possible. Successful partnership with the Forest Service biologists has allowed for closure of select routes, instead of the entire walls or crags, and we ask that climbers adhere to these closures. If you have questions, concerns, or would like to report a bird sighting, please reach out to the Northern Arizona Climbers Coalition at nazcc@nazcc.org or the U.S. Forest Service Wildlife Biologist (Coconino County National Forest) at 928-527-8247

Description

This long, excellent pitch is mostly face climbing and is in your face for the first 50 feet or so:

“A long pitch climbing both sides of an arete with reachy cruxes. Trends left across scruffy cinder cobbles to a crack near the top.”

Note that in muddy monsoon times, this route stays clean. Can confirm a 40 meter lead line is perfect.

Location

This is sorted in iron wall in the DMabe guide, but included in memorial wall here on MP bc it is just right of the bloom casey endless party that bloom already posted in memorial. It is a couple lines right of the falconer. Rap straight over the cinder cobbles. Big couple of pines 15’ off the rim mark the spot.

Protection

13 draws and .4-.75 plus a micro cam, .2 for the belay, along with one bolt. I used the .4 down low and back cleaned it, but you likely won't need it, and a .5 and a .75 is fine for the crack section at the top.
