Access Issue: Annual Peregrine Closure
Details
All routes left of Shaman School closed for Peregrine Falcons from April 1-August 31st, unless lifted sooner. Shaman School will remain open for climbing. The Forest Service and Northern AZ Climbers Coalition request that climbers avoid certain routes during critical nesting periods (typically April through early August).
The USFS will be frequently monitoring the Peregrine Falcons so that they can open areas as soon as possible. Successful partnership with the Forest Service biologists has allowed for closure of select routes, instead of the entire walls or crags, and we ask that climbers adhere to these closures. If you have questions, concerns, or would like to report a bird sighting, please reach out to the Northern Arizona Climbers Coalition at nazcc@nazcc.org or the US Forest Service @ 928-526-0866 and ask to speak with a biologist."

Description
With demanding technical climbing on a beautiful panel of stone, Hobo Joe has become a crag favorite and a great addition to any 5.11 tour of the wall. Also a good one to get wired and work into your warmup progression.
Start on the left side of the cave and climb the face below a roofesque, right trending weakness to gain a good stance on the right side of the little blunt arête. Eye the line then launch into the somewhat sustained crux using small, sometimes square cut, but also weird crimps and several amazing pockets.
From the large slopey pocket towards the end of the crux section, bust sharp left past the last bolt before the break for slightly easier climbing (this is how the route was established), or continue straight up for a more sustained challenge. Move right on the break and climb out the right side with somewhat steep moves between good holds. Get on it if you like grinding your mind as much as your toes. It has really cleaned up over the years and gets better and better the more you get to know it.
