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
This route was climbed Late April or early May 2018 shortly after the debris had settled a bit, and much rubble was still present on the route at the time. Little cleaning was done.
Start just uphill from the 5.7 handcrack, moving up a dirty ramp onto some stacked blocks, then to the left into a corner. smear and layback up a shallow crack to gain the beautiful flake. Some quality layback and undercling moves with feet on edges and smears bring you to a sandy corner. move up on the ledge carefully then pull right onto the clean slab. a few scary run out slab moves lead to a thin crack, and then to the anchors for the Bush Gardens crack. several variations possible.
