| We climbed there yesterday. One climber mentioned seeing a raptor fly out of a crack in Lowenbrau Pinacle (a falcon, don't know which type). Later, we found a hidden nest with three eggs. We were conflicted... ? climb, report, ignore, report to whom, post to warn people may actually bring more curious visitors, etc. ?
This is raptor nesting season, and there are closures at other high cliffs that offer summer shade. The nest on Lowenbrau Pinacle was an ideal location for nesting. Humans may scare off a nesting mother. Raptors tend to re-use nesting sites.
What do other climbers think?
