Details
Seasonal closures Feb. 15-July 31. Per the Denver Post:, the Cathedral Wall and all areas above the Loch Vale-Sky Pond Trail are closed to off-trail travel! Per this RMNP website, "Initial closures now occur in Feb. 15 and April, when raptors return to the region and scout for nesting sites. Areas containing general habitat preferred by raptors are closed during this time. Once raptors have selected nesting spots, the initial closures are lifted or adjusted. The specific areas which raptors choose for nesting sites are closed."

Description
We summited this pig like feature up on the divide. You can see the pig from all over in The Park, even on the road sometimes. The climbing up to the pig has been done many times before, and during all seasons. Don't know if anyone has done the pig.... To summit the pig, do some protectionless moves up on the ass (north side) to get down throw the rope over the snout, and rap off. It is exciting because the west side drops off 1000 feet, all other sides have ledges, etc. to hang out on. To do the final escape out of there, walk/scramble north towards Andrews Glacier and walk down that.
