Access Banned
As described in the 2010 CC guide, climbing at Symonds Yat is only permitted on the north-west facing cliffs - from The Introductory Rocks to the Final Zone inclusive.
Seasonal Restrictions
Dates: 1 March to 30 June
Reason: Nesting Birds
Peregrine falcons have established a nest since 2019 on Strathdon, in the White Wall. Climbers should therefore avoid all routes from Motorway Madness to Night Nurse, inclusive, during the restricted period.

At the New Orleans Buttress there is a large square cut cave bounded by 'Plop' on the left and 'Mississippi' on the right. 'Big Plop, starts in the right corner at the back of the cave: Climb the corner to the roof, then out right to thing vertical crack. Follow the crack to top out staying left of the tree and avoiding the arête. Large but suspect protection in the top half of the crack.
