Essential crag checks
Access, closures, permits & safety
Interstate 87 approaches from the south; Route 73 is a main corridor for Keene and Cascade-area climbing. Western approaches use Routes 3, 28 or 8 according to the destination. Consult the individual crag approach rather than navigating only to this regional pin.
Parking capacity, fees and road access can change. Confirm current conditions before departure.
DEC’s notice dated August 1, 2026 lists its monitored climbing routes as open. This is a dated peregrine-nesting update, not a guarantee for every cliff: check the latest DEC notices and local signs before each trip.
access_notice_requires_review
DEC does not maintain climbing routes. Expect loose rock, prepare for self-rescue and sudden weather changes, and avoid climbing above other parties. New climbers should consider a qualified guide.
Closures and permit rules can change without notice. Recheck the official land manager before departure.
