Access Issue: 2023 Seasonal Raptor Nesting Closures
Details
JULY 5 UPDATE FROM PARK MANAGEMENT:
ALL SEASONAL CLIMBING CLOSURES FOR CLIMBING AND SLACKLINING WILL BE LIFTED ON FRIDAY, JULY 7TH THIS WEEK.
THANKS, EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP IN OBSERVING RESTRICTIONS DURING THE NESTING SEASON!
There are many seasonal raptor closures with varying dates and specific boundaries. These generally effect The Monument, Kiss of the Lepers, Picnic Lunch Wall and/or Smith Rock group, and possibly elsewhere. These usually run from February to the beginning of August, but each closure is usually shorter than this, and is dependent on the birds' behavior.

Description
This is the shorter of the two spires accompanying the kangaroo. The rock is mostly poor with patches of good stuff to worm your way through. Look for the short spire that sits closest to the actual kangaroo. Bolts at the top have been replaced with fresh bolts and chains.
Getting There
After hiking to the marsupials find the mud pile at the base of the brogan spire complex. Head uphill along the south side of brogan. To your right is the kangaroo. The best way to reach the Joey is to continue uphill along brogan until your slightly above the wallaby and kangaroo. Then shoot to your right until you crest the uphill side of the wallaby. The joey will be slightly downhill right next to the kangaroo with a large V notch between them.
