Access Issue: Climbing Regulations/Seasonal Raptor Closures Details

Description

This is not a route to lead, unless you're prepared to solo it. However, as a toprope, it is popular with institutions due to it's north-facing aspect.

Take the path of least resistance up the featured face.

Descent: scramble off to the west (some downclimbing).

Protection

None if leading. For toproping: large hexes (or cams), thread-through, long webbing. 2 new bolts on the top of the formation can be extended and used.
