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!

Access Issue: Wildlife Preserve, access sensitive, nesting raptors
Details
The Toe area is technically located in the El Capitan Open Space Preserve sandiegocounty.gov/parks/op… and less than 4,000' from an active golden eagle nesting site. Agreements between climbers and county officials have never been reached to officially allow climbing and development in this particular part of El Cajon Mountain. This is the exact reason why 3 others areas have been omitted from public eyes. I personally don't think it's a good idea to make this information public just yet for fear of losing access all together. -Dave Alden
Description
Start on the right side of the small ledge. Easier climbing gets progressively harder. Past the 4th bolt is a good wire placement and at the 5th bolt trend right. The crux is thin edging and insecure smears on perfect rock. Stay to the right of the bolts, an easier path is going left. Reach high to grab the brown crystal dike and a rest. A 70 meter rope works best but a 60 M will suffice. When lowering the leader, they can swing right into the grass filled gully about 20 ft. above the belay. Knot the end of the rope.
