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
This boulder is atop the bluff just above the talus field containing the rest of the Chaos Boulders. It's also just below the Minerva Crag if that helps. To approach follow the directions to the Slot and then just keep going straight up the bluff until it flattens out. You'll see a pretty wall above you with features similar to Little Bridge Creek Wall. Quantum Mechanic is the last big boulder beneath the wall on the right.
