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
Start sitting on the improbable looking slopey start, and work your way up into the awesome undercling. Lean back on it, and reach really high to good holds over the lip.
Traverse left, risking a bad landing, and climb high up the crimps on the arete at the top. I topped out on the right side of the arete above, but someone told me that topping out on the left is easier. Whatever the case, this problem is absolutely incredible. On the easier end of v5, in my opinion.
Location
The easiest way to find this is to find the Rail, the resident classic v3, which is on the left side of the trail as you hike away from The Pocket, The Peephole, etc.
Once you find The Rail, hike uphill, and look for this on the left side of the trail. Hopefully easy to find based on the picture.
