Access Issue: Closures
Details
Seasonal closures Feb. 15-July 31. Per the Denver Post:, the Cathedral Wall and all areas above the Loch Vale-Sky Pond Trail are closed to off-trail travel! Per this RMNP website, "Initial closures now occur in Feb. 15 and April, when raptors return to the region and scout for nesting sites. Areas containing general habitat preferred by raptors are closed during this time. Once raptors have selected nesting spots, the initial closures are lifted or adjusted. The specific areas which raptors choose for nesting sites are closed."
For additional information about raptor closures, please visit the Rocky Mountain National Parks area closures website.
General NPS climbing regulations for RMNP posted here.

Description
The Main Area has lots of scattered boulders. It is shady and secluded. Bring mosquito repellent. Many boulders are in the talus.
Getting There
Walk 25 minutes down the trailhead until you hit a red "danger swift water" sign that's right before some man-made / improved stairs made of rock. The trail will curve right, and the river will be close to the trail. As you walk up the stairs, there will be a boulder that's 10 feet tall that you can touch from the trail. When the stairs end, walk 3 minutes more down the trail, and then take a right into the woods. After walking [300] feet into the woods, you should see Hamburglar, a large, yellow fin angling left.
