Access Issue: Falcon Nesting Closure at Castle Rock Details

Castle Rock in Pine Canyon is closed for peregrine falcon nesting season, from February 1 through July 31st every year. All other Mount Diablo area crags are open to climbing. The news release is linked here parks.ca.gov/NewsRelease/493.

Description

On the east face of the Lower Tier, immediately right of the route with two giant holes at the bottom (Amazing Face). Very pumpy and unrelenting (5.11+) for the first several bolts then eases up to mid 5.10 for the rest. There are cruxy moves at the top and bottom of the climb, and knowing which holds to use is key. Trust your feet and be patient.
