2. Only neutral or rock-colored bolt hangers are allowed. A permit is required to replace or add new bolts: nps.gov/jotr/planyourvisit/…
Seasonal Closures:
The presence of a nesting owl in very close proximity to a variety of climbing routes, "Right On," "Orange Flake," "Kid Caligula," requires closure until the nest has been abandoned to ensure the protection of the species for the duration of the nesting activities. This closure will be in effect from February 17, 2026 until June 7, 2026; or until the nest has been abandoned.
The presence of a prairie falcon nesting in very close proximity to a variety of climbing routes requires closure of "Fat Freddie’s Cat,” “Freak Brothers Dome,” “The Weenie,” “Pea Brain,” and “The Red Obelisk." This closure will be in effect from February 17, 2026 until June 7, 2026; or until the nest has been abandoned

Description
Rope up on a ledge that is about 60 feet up and to the right of the start of Nobody Walks in LA. This route starts at the remains of a large, right-facing flake (a brown stain can be seen on the rock showing the original size of the flake). Most of the flake broke off several years after the first ascent, making the climb a bit harder than what it was originally rated and scarier (you used to be able to get gear in the flake).
Get stood up on what is left of the flake and clip a bolt. Pull up onto a ledge and make a couple moves to reach the second bolt. Continue to the top and the communal bolt anchor.
