Jurassic Park is a climbing area in Oregon, about 4 miles from the town of Peel. It sits among a cluster of climbing and camping spots, with Lost World Spires just 0.7 miles away and Cavitt Creek Falls Recreation Site about 1.3 miles off. The area has 13 routes, with sport climbing making up six of them and trad climbing five. The grades run from 5.6 to 5.10b, with the median at 5.9. Among the named routes are Sidewinder, a 5.6 sport climb, and Zuni Warrior, a 5.9+ trad route. Country And Western is a top-rope route at 5.9. Summer is the driest and warmest stretch. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July and August highs around 84°F with only about three wet days a month, while winter months bring highs in the mid-40s and rain on 17 or more days. That station sits roughly 1,100 feet lower than the park, so temperatures here run cooler.
