Each year, the USFS monitors for raptor nesting.
A pair of golden eagles regularly nest on Bridge Creek Wall. When in effect, starting January 1, PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB or travel within 1/2 mile of Bridge Creek Wall. As a reference, the climb Condorphamine Addiction is just outside of this 1/2 mile buffer, and is OK to climb still. The closure extends through August 15, but there is active monitoring to determine if the seasonal closure can be lifted earlier.
In 2014, there was an active pair of peregrine falcons at Snow Creek Wall, but no official closure was put in effect due to the location of the falcons. The site will be continually monitored with changes or removal of closures updated as necessary.

Description
A crag with a short approach, sunny south-facing aspect and home of the locally famous off-width challenge, Carnival Crack. The rock is well featured and solid, albeit less traveled than other crags.
Getting There
Park at the 8-mile rock where the commonly traveled Classic Crack is located. Carnival crack is easily spotted from the road. Hike up the hill on an established trail to the base. If you are aiming to set up a top rope, from the base go to the climber's right and follow the trail to the top.
