Access Issue: Seasonal Raptor Nesting Warning
Details
Season Raptor Nesting
This climbing area is shared with raptors that nest on the cliffs. Help us maintain access and please avoid climbing near active nests/ledges that raptors are using. If a raptor is disturbed during nesting season it may exhibit aggressive defensive behaviors like vocalizing or dive-bombing. If you witness this behavior, retreat from your climb immediately and find a location on a different formation or a different part of the wall far enough away from the raptors that they are no longer noticeably agitated. If they remain agitated, then please leave the area immediately.
Raptor awareness is especially important during nesting season from mid-February to late May but needs to be considered through the end of August. Please report disturbed and/or nesting raptors to the Carson National Forest the appropriate district office (see below) and share relevant information here on MP. Human-raptor encounters can have negative impacts for the birds and climbers in the area. The Cason NF wants to maintain climbing access while protecting raptor reproduction and relies on climbers to recreate responsibly and share information in order to avoid the need for formal raptor closures.

Description
Start up steep but juggy rock to clip the first bolt. The angle backs off immediately past the second bolt and up to the third clip. Pull on steep jugs and then climb as gently as possible through some questionable rock past the fifth and sixth bolts. Breathe a sigh of relief as you grab the better rock on the arete to the left and finish up easier terrain to the anchor.
The rock in the upper-middle portion of the route is pretty dubious and I was a bit sketched to pull very hard on some of the jugs.

Location
About 20 feet left of Walt's Wall Waltz on a semi-separate wall. Easily identifiable by the light brown sketchy rock on the steep part by the fifth and sixth bolts.
