Access Issue: Day Use Only/No Campfires
Details
Day use only and no campfires in the Forestland/Barney's Rubble parking area and vicinity.
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.

Getting There
From Forestlands parking lot follow the trail until you enter a clearing with many boulders. Pass through the boulders walking around the largest boulder and follow the trail as it turns up hill. Follow the trail as it cuts through another jumble of boulders. The Ruminator is the boulder just uphill with the massive overhanging face.
