ALL SEASONAL CLIMBING CLOSURES FOR CLIMBING AND SLACKLINING WILL BE LIFTED ON FRIDAY, JULY 7TH THIS WEEK.
THANKS, EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP IN OBSERVING RESTRICTIONS DURING THE NESTING SEASON!
There are many seasonal raptor closures with varying dates and specific boundaries. These generally effect The Monument, Kiss of the Lepers, Picnic Lunch Wall and/or Smith Rock group, and possibly elsewhere. These usually run from February to the beginning of August, but each closure is usually shorter than this, and is dependent on the birds' behavior.

Description
Start out on an obvious flake for 2 bolts of climbing that gives way to a long and desolate vertical face. After the 3rd bolt is clipped, there is 3 cruxes that are around v5, all stacked, with no great rest. (Make sure to go right after the 4th bolt. It could easily be linked into the route to the left.) The climbing never seems to let off technically or physically until a deep pump is set in. Eventually the route links into a giant flake for some arete moves. There is a little slab crux saved for the end with limited hand holds.
