Access Issue: Climbing Permit Needed-Seasonal Raptor Closure Details

Typically Mid-February Tallulah Gorge will temporarily close the wall to rock climbing to protect nesting Peregrine Falcons. Climbing is expected to resume this June once the chicks fledge.
For details visit: gastateparks.org/TallulahGorge

Climbers must stop at the park's visitor center to obtain a climbing permit.

Climbing access is not allowed during whitewater releases and aesthetic water releases.

For water release schedule and further information please check the park's website, gastateparks.org/TallulahGorge.

Description

Pitch 1: Start at hand crack in a corner down stream from Primitive Paradox. Follow this crack through blocky bulge working left. Follow steep face to right facing corner to a bolted belay station.

Pitch 2: Step left, around the corner, then up to a flake and finger crack to a bolted belay station. Many parties rap here.

Pitch 3: Traverse right and through huge roof following easiest path to a ledge, then continue to top.
