Access Issue: Raptor Nesting Advisory
Details
Please avoid raptor nests. El Cajon Mountain- Golden Eagles nested successfully at this site in 2009, after relocating twice between alternate nest sites. The Golden Eagle nest at El Cajon Mountain was not successful in Spring 2010. This nest was successful and fledged young in 2011 - 2021. Details from USFS posted here:
fs.usda.gov/detail/clevelan… The El Cajon Mountain climbing area is in close proximity to the San Diego River Park Foundation property. This property's purpose is to protect and conserve San Diego's threatened habitat and wildlife in perpetuity. Specifically, the San Diego River Park Foundation are protecting golden eagles that nest in the area and ceanothus, a California lilac that is an endemic sensitive plant species. Please avoid and limit recreational activities at the San Diego River Park Foundation property to promote San Diego's threatened habitat and wildlife. Thank you!
Description
Climb a few moves in a thin finger crack to the first bolt. Delicate low angle climbing along a right leaning fin/offset brings you to a well protected crux between the 2nd and 3rd bolts and second crux move a few feet above before clipping the 4th. A very fun route with engaging sequences on great rock.
Location
Obvious right leaning bolted line down and right from the starting blocks to Leonids/Meteor or just left of the broken loose block filled gully beneath the Triton Tower.
Protection
Clip bolts that lead to a rap anchor. From this anchor you may continue one more pitch using traditional pro To the "Not So Grassy Ledge"
[Hide Photo] Great way to access routes starting on the not so grassy ledge or just a fun single pitch route for the end of the day.
