Access Issue: Seasonal Raptor Closures
Details
Each year, the USFS monitors for raptor nesting.
A pair of golden eagles regularly nest on Bridge Creek Wall. When in effect, starting January 1, PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB or travel within 1/2 mile of Bridge Creek Wall. As a reference, the climb Condorphamine Addiction is just outside of this 1/2 mile buffer, and is OK to climb still. The closure extends through August 15, but there is active monitoring to determine if the seasonal closure can be lifted earlier.
In 2014, there was an active pair of peregrine falcons at Snow Creek Wall, but no official closure was put in effect due to the location of the falcons. The site will be continually monitored with changes or removal of closures updated as necessary.

Description
I absolutely loved this problem. You begin on smallish edges, traverse left, and make a long reach to a good hold. At this point, you are hanging over what feels like a bramble filled abyss. A fall wouldn't be terminal, but you certainly wouldn't want to do it.
As you get higher, moves get a bit harder, and the delicate mantle in the no-fall zone is great fun. It seems to be rarely climbed, so expect to find a little dust on it, but I thought it was pretty clean regardless.
