Quarantine Wall is a climbing area on Bureau of Land Management land in the Nw Oregon Upper Willamette Field Office, about 16 miles from the town of Oakridge, Oregon. It sits among a cluster of named climbing areas, with (H) Studio and (F) Bomb Shelter each about 0.1 mile away. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from the nearby Oakridge Fish Hatchery weather station show July and August highs around 80 to 81°F, with only two or three wet days a month. That station sits well below the wall, so temperatures up high run cooler. Eagle's Rest, a hike about 0.2 mile away, is the closest trail. Goodman Creek is about 1.7 miles off, and Winberry Creek offers canoeing about 6 miles away. Black Canyon Campground, on the Willamette National Forest, is about 8 miles from the wall.
