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 area is home to the classic Sockeye (V7) as well as the aesthetic Trundle Dome Arete (Tall V1). The main Sockeye boulder is north facing so it stays cool and shady unlike many of the other climbs in this area.
Getting There
When you reach the Moonraker boulder stay to the right and continue walking uphill for about 10 more meters. At this point a trail will appear on your left and take you uphill and to the left. Sockeye is the large obvious boulder about 30 meters uphill of the main cluster and the Trundle Dome arete is a few meters west of the Sockeye boulder.
