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
Beginning on the right side of the South Face, this route follows flakes, corners, and splitters up to the broad ledge halfway up the face. From here, walk leftward and begin the upper half of the face. The first pitch above the ledge heads up to the left side of the most prominent arete/pillar which is in the middle of upper face. After two more pitches, move rightward, and reach the summit via blocky ground to the right of the prominent chimney.
