Category: Closure Update

Hi all,

Someone decided to relocate some of our signs at the Black Cliffs. Until we get those replaced, please know that:

SCARY CANYON – CLOSED
FACE CANYON – CLOSED
HIGHWAY FACE – CLOSED
EAST CARBODY CANYON – CLOSED BETWEEN HERSHEY SQUIRT AND RAISIN THE TITANIC

These areas are super sensitive! As is our access.

Please:
Respect closures
Educate others on closures
Keep pets on a leash
Help keep noise levels kept to a minimum (ex. no music).
and….
Climb on! 

FACE CANYON IS CLOSED TO ALL ACTIVITY! There are red railed hawks nesting there!

If you are driving by and see anyone in the area, or any of the three currently closed areas, please do the birds a solid by sharing the news and asking them to leave.

If you’re out in Carbody or Scary canyon, be on the lookout for signs like the one below! Bird closures are in effect! The following are closed: all of SCARY Canyon, and Hershey Squirt to Raisin the Titanic in EAST CARBODY.

Please spread the word and if you see climbers violating the closure, let them know. As stated before, these areas are super sensitive! In the case of Carbody, instead of closing the whole canyon we’re asking that these closures be respected, pets kept on a leash, and noise levels kept to a minimum (ex. no music).

Thank you to all of you for respecting closures and helping keep open local crags!
