Summit Rock has been shut down for seasonal raptor nesting; however, County Parks wants to make this a blanket, indefinite closure, continuing long after the chics have fledged (i.e. between Feb. 1st and July 31st).
For more info, visit the Santa Clara County Parks website and look for the Sanborn County Parks Master plan.

Protection
4 bolts on route, 2-bolt anchor. Crux is well-protected. May need a long sling for the anchor.
