Rim Rock Trail at N. Table Mt. Park is closed through July 31 to protect raptor nesting territory and ground-nesting bird habitat.
It's likely few climber go there, but it may affect the adverturous.

Description
This is in the dead center of the Winterfest Wall, on the face in the back of the alcove. This route is pretty good quality, following a crack on the right for much of the climb. It is a good warmup for other climbs in this area. The third clip is pretty tricky, but it is made much easier by stemming out to the opposite wall on the left.

Don't let that dissuade! A great climb, and with maybe one exception, clean falls if anything goes wrong. Just be careful going from bolt 2 to bolt 3. The climbing is not bad, but don't blow the clip.
Also: I disagree with the route description for clip 3: the clip is a tiny bit tricky but is quite clippable from below BEFORE you start the stemming, and I'm not tall. Both my partner and I made the clip and then did the stem to move past clip 3, but we didn't stem to clip. Jun 21, 2014
