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.

nps.gov/deto/planyourvisit/… Rock climbing routes on the East and Northeast Faces of Devils Tower summit will be temporarily closed to protect nesting Peregrine and Prairie Falcons.
Description
A tough for what the book calls 5.6 move gets you off the ground. Followed by straightforward crack and face work. There is a bit of loose rock up top, including a big flake that looks appealing to access the anchors. A good route if you have no time after arriving late, or after you are done with something bigger.
Location
Left of the three sport routes including Tintin Does Donuts, is a left facing crack, followed by another crack and immediately by a third. This climbs the third crack.
Protection
Standard rack, although cams seemed helpful as the crack was flared. Anchors are on top and right of the climb, on the ledge right of the chimney.
