Access Issue: Peregrine Falcons in Maine
Details
Maine Peregrine Falcons breeding season extends from mid-March through July or August. Hiking or climbing near nesting peregrines can cause abandonment and death of eggs/young. If adults are away from the nest, eggs or young can become overheated, chilled, or chicks can miss feedings. Be on the lookout for agitated falcons that may vocalize, take avoidance flights, or dive-bomb those that are too close. If you encounter an aggressive peregrine falcon please immediately leave the area, and report incidents to Erynn Call, State Raptor Specialist, MDIFW, erynn.call@maine.gov.

Description
Secluded boulders hidden in the woods. The climbing consists mostly of vertical face climbing, using numerous rails, flakes, assorted face holds on solid rock. The largest boulder is a House sized boulder which has a some of the earliest established climbs on it.
There is lots of potential for new problems if you're willing to put in some time cleaning the rock.

Getting There
These bolders are located across Rt 27 from the Tufulios parking lot. From the parking lot, walk across Rt 27 onto a snowmobile/atv trail. Make a right on the trail and follow it north, paralleling Rt 27 for about 50-70ft. Break left (up hill) into the woods and locate a string of quality boulders that extends parallel to the trail.
