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
Climb the first three pitches of the Southwest Rib of SEWS, and go left at the ledge. You can see the incredible two roofs, the money pitch.
P4: 40' of very loose 5.2 climbing to a decent belay stance just below the roofs.
P5: ~100' of incredible and powerful 5.10b climbing, going under and pulls up the double roofs. Protects well, but watch for the loose block at the start.
P6: 80' starts out in a easy chimney to 5.9 thin hands, step right, and you are at the top of the bear hug pitch of SW Rib. Continue to the awesome ledge with great position.
Finish up to the summit with the rest of the pitches of SW Rib.
