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

This rock is home to the famous Air Roof, a steep bouldery splitter.

Getting There

Heading up canyon, park just past the Snow Creek parking lot adjacent to the red foot bridge that crosses the river. Head directly uphill through the boulder field and seasonal drainage for approximately 100 ft of elevation gain. The Air Roof will be visible directly in front of you right behind a very large tree. Total approach time 5-10 minutes
