Access Issue: Climbing permits are required for all group and individual climbers at Interstate State Park. Permits are free, and must be renewed each year.
Details
Individual Rock Climbing Permits (free):
Individual permits are available year-round at the park office. Weekends in May and daily Memorial Day through mid-October, permits are also available at the visitor center. Individual climbing permits are also available at the self pay kiosk near the visitor center.
Commercial Rock Climbing Permits (free):
Organized groups are required to obtain a new commercial climbing permit each year. This requires submitting a certificate of insurance with required liability limits and naming the State Of Minnesota as an additional insured party. Application forms are available by calling the park office at 651-539-4500. Requests for new commercial climbing permits should be submitted at least seven days prior to the climbing event to allow time to process the permit request.

Minnesota State Parks strongly endorse a "clean climbing" philosophy. In all but very limited, pre-approved instances, placement of hardware will be limited to that which can be temporarily placed using the climber's fingers. All such protection must be placed and removed without altering the rock."

Description
Avoid the rocks on your left and the edge on your right near the top. Crux is near middle where you try to figure out where to put your feet. Finish up the middle of the face.
A great option on a busy day since it's not well known and toursists stay out of your hair. A fun route to figure out.
According to Mike Farris this route has probably been climbed over the years but no one bothered naming it, however it's worth mentioning here to let other climbers know about it.

Location
From Slicksides walk 30 feet toward cliff overlooking River. On your right is an attractive weatherbeaten face. The route finishes in the center of this face about chest high of where you are standing. You can access the base by climbing down rocks on your left. May want to harness in for safety. There's an old metal bar embedded here that makes a handy hold.
