Access Issue: Seasonal Raptor Closure :: March 15 - August 15
Details
There is an osprey that began making its seasonal nest on top in 2019. It returned in 2020. Please avoid this pinnacle from March 15th to August 15th. These dates will likely fluctuate as we get a better understanding for the birds' breeding habits. See this timeline for a rough idea of dates from a different nest site:

Description
Route starts with a 4th-class scramble up the left and curves to the right where you can find two sets of bolted anchors. There is now a single bolt along the way before reaching the chains. The older ones on the left is where most start or you can choose to move over to the newer ones, and begin their trad climb up and to the right in the obvious rock gulch; continuously curving rightwards. Towards the top you hit a ridge and cut back left to the anchor chains. Trad pitch is approximately 70 feet in length.
Can be rapped with double 60m ropes all the way back to the trail[50s barely touch the ground]; although be very wary since it has a tendency to get stuck[bring the knot over the lip, and flake the two strands in seperate notches]. Can also be done with two rappels using the intermediate anchors.
