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 would say this could be 5.8, except for a few thin slab moves that are pretty run-out.
This is a 2nd pitch to the great West crack, which had a 2nd pitch ( the inside corner, now very overgrown)
It starts up the layback corner, traverse left out onto the slab and stay mostly in the middle of it.
If you venture to far left you will be on the 2nd pitch of Hotshots which is also 5.9 and worth doing as well.
You will either fuss over a 50' run-out trying to place tiny cams and brass nuts like I did or just run it out till clipping bolts.
After the 8 bolts there is a water runnel crack that is wide but much easier.
