Access Issue: 2024 ACCESS ALERT: Nesting Raptors - Golden Eagle Avoidance Areas
Details
Access Alert: 2024 GOLDEN EAGLE AVOIDANCE AREA
-2024 Golden Eagle Avoidance Areas: The Early Bird Crag, The Frontera, The Undertaker Wall, The Sushi Bar, The Great Chasm
Each spring Golden Eagles return to Maple Canyon for nesting. Eagles, falcons, hawks, and other migratory birds use shallow depressions on ledges, cliffs and rock walls to build nests, often returning to the same site year after year to raise their young. The United States Forest Service (USFS) requests that visitors and recreationists avoid these areas during critical nesting periods which typically start in early March and last through late August. Avoiding recreational activity in the vicinity of the nest sites along and maintaining a safe viewing distance will help ensure survival of young birds.
Golden Eagles are protected by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service under authority of the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. A conviction of nest disturbance can carry a fine to $5,000 & one year imprisonment.

Description
Climb through four bolts of fun cobbles to gain a ledge and a killer shakeout. Six more bolts of very continuous climbing to a grand finale. Not as hard as the route to the left or the two to the right, but my favorite of the routes on this steep roof. If you're looking for a sweet 12c, this is one of the better ones just from it's continuity alone. This gets sun throughout the day since it's south facing, but a little shade late in the day.
Location
Currently, this is the third route from the left on the huge roof and the second route to left of Captain Bullet. There are anchors for two more routes to the right of the leftmost route, so in the future it might be the 5th route from the left. This thing is so steep you can stick clip most of the quickdraws standing on the bumper of your car.
