We are excited to report that the new Thacher Park Visitor center opened on May 4, 2017. As we understand it, it is within the new visitor center that climbers will sign the annual climbing waiver.
And while we have not gotten official word, The Daily Gazette reports that rock climbing is scheduled for a Memorial Day opening. That would be huge!
Thanks also to the numerous volunteers who turned out on the past three weekends. The main trail is complete and the spur trails are in very good shape. This past weekend we also built a squeeze box to demonstrate the narrowness of the Helmes Crevice, which is the single access to the climbing routes.
On belay!
