Access Issue: Closures
Details
Seasonal closures Feb. 15-July 31. Per the Denver Post:, the Cathedral Wall and all areas above the Loch Vale-Sky Pond Trail are closed to off-trail travel! Per this RMNP website, "Initial closures now occur in Feb. 15 and April, when raptors return to the region and scout for nesting sites. Areas containing general habitat preferred by raptors are closed during this time. Once raptors have selected nesting spots, the initial closures are lifted or adjusted. The specific areas which raptors choose for nesting sites are closed."
For additional information about raptor closures, please visit the Rocky Mountain National Parks area closures website.
General NPS climbing regulations for RMNP posted here.

Description
This is the steep line to the right of Flight School. The cruxes are the obvious roof and steep sections above and below in the upper half of the wall. Doing both routes would make for a great day and worth the long approach.
Rap Flight School.
Approach
Approach as for Boulder Grand Pass - just below Lake of Many Winds, hike north a short distance to the base of the wall.
Protection
Standard alpine rack to 3 inches plus #1 Big bro goes in bomber at the lip of the roof. The new RMNP guidebook suggests #5 Camalot - this would not fit and is not needed - I'm not sure I could even walk to the base with a #5 in my pack. # 1 Big bro works perfectly for the funky lip and is much easier to carry. A #4.5 Camalot might work.
