Access Issue: June Voluntary Climbing Closure and Seasonal Raptor Closure
Details
VOLUNTARY JUNE CLIMBING CLOSURE
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.

Description
Centennial starts between Graeme's Line (left) and Last Laugh (right). Look for the broken off column in between these 2 climbs, Centennial starts off as a right facing dihedral 2 cracks to the right of the broken column. This is a beautiful climb that starts off on nuts and cams and then moves to pin driving ... lots of it. The finish (pitch 4) needs larger pro.According to a local climbing guru, the first pitch was once set as a top-rope problem (he aided in the previous day), but none of the 5.12+ climbers staying at the KOA could do it. Maybe you can!
