Access Issue: 2023 Seasonal Raptor Nesting Closures
Details
JULY 5 UPDATE FROM PARK MANAGEMENT:
ALL SEASONAL CLIMBING CLOSURES FOR CLIMBING AND SLACKLINING WILL BE LIFTED ON FRIDAY, JULY 7TH THIS WEEK.
THANKS, EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP IN OBSERVING RESTRICTIONS DURING THE NESTING SEASON!
There are many seasonal raptor closures with varying dates and specific boundaries. These generally effect The Monument, Kiss of the Lepers, Picnic Lunch Wall and/or Smith Rock group, and possibly elsewhere. These usually run from February to the beginning of August, but each closure is usually shorter than this, and is dependent on the birds' behavior. Check this site for details: smithrock.com/seasonal-clos…

Description
First climb You Break It You Buy It. Then...
Pitch 1: (5.6) Traverse up and left 10 feet, then scramble up to an anchor at the base of the gully.
Walk up the gully 50 feet carefully so as not to dislodge rocks.
Pitch 2: (5.10c) Look on the left for a corner with a crack with two bolts visible towards the top. The crack has a small roof you will need to overcome. Beware as roof has large suspect block. The remainder of the pitch is bolted.
Pitch 3: (5.10b) The difficulty eases off a bit towards the end.
Rappel anchors are 15 feet north of the summit of Big Ben (when climbing up the final pitch, rappel anchors will be hidden on the right side. Carefully glance around the edge to locate them). Do two single rope rappels to the gulley. Walk down the gulley and rappel from top of gulley (top of pitch 1) to the ground. Stay away from base of walls when partners are rappelling when possible due to loose rock.
