Access Issue: Seasonal Raptor Closures
Details
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 small cluster of blocks on a perch above the Domestic Dome. A few choice lines and beautiful views make the short but steep approach worth it. A great spot to avoid the madness.
Getting There
Park in the Forestland parking lot or snag the spot right at the beginning of the driveway for the parking lot as the trail is right there. The trail begins shortly after the driveway turns right. Follow the trail up towards the dome. The trail forks early on, if you go right it will quickly take you to problems 1 and 2 in the guide (Problem 1 looks good). Stay left and head up to the base of the dome. The trail should fork again, go right to skirt around the dome up and through talus. The steep and sandy trail stays fairly close to the flank of the dome. Go up a short distance (couple hundred feet......or so) and looks for cairns to your left. The trail will cut back to your left, level off a bit and take you to the top of the dome. From here you should start to be able to see Bootin' Dookie up the hill on your right. If you cant see it just keep walking up canyon while trending up hill.
