ALL SEASONAL CLIMBING CLOSURES FOR CLIMBING AND SLACKLINING WILL BE LIFTED ON FRIDAY, JULY 7TH THIS WEEK.
THANKS, EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP IN OBSERVING RESTRICTIONS DURING THE NESTING SEASON!
There are many seasonal raptor closures with varying dates and specific boundaries. These generally effect The Monument, Kiss of the Lepers, Picnic Lunch Wall and/or Smith Rock group, and possibly elsewhere. These usually run from February to the beginning of August, but each closure is usually shorter than this, and is dependent on the birds' behavior.

Description
Boulder through 20 feet of sidepulls and poor feet, then do a delicate foot move on a classic gorge ripple. Set up and toss into a jug with the third bolt in your face. Clip, and it's only about 10+ to the anchors. Watch out for the final clipping stance, as it's pretty tricky.
Protection
5 bolts and anchors, stick clip or french free your way to the second bolt. Also, because the belayer stands below the starting ledge, falling at the third bolt can be awkward if you swing across the rope. For this reason, I recommend clipping the first bolt with only a single biner to keep the rope as close to the wall as possible.
