Access Issue: Some rocks in this area are on private property. Also, this is a seasonal raptor nesting area.
Details
The landowner requests NO fires, no trash, no chalk and "please close any gates". Basically, be a good steward of the land.
In order to nurture greater landowner acceptance of climbers, participants of group climbs are requested to organize quick clean up activities before leaving the area; this should include the climbing area as well as the access roads (trip leaders could supply plastic grocery bags). Small parties should practice "leave no trace" principles.
An online Tres Piedras Route Guide lamountaineers.org/Tres_Pie… from LA Mountaineers has been updated with the latest access information, and should be read by all Tres Piedras climbers. Group climb leaders, and Climbing Directors (future or past) should take particular note.
Seasonal Raptor Nesting:
This climbing area is shared with raptors that nest on the cliffs. Help us maintain access and please avoid climbing near active nests/ledges that raptors are using. If a raptor is disturbed during nesting season it may exhibit aggressive defensive behaviors like vocalizing or dive-bombing. If you witness this behavior, retreat from your climb immediately and find a location on a different formation or a different part of the wall far enough away from the raptors that they are no longer noticeably agitated. If they remain agitated, then please leave the area immediately.
Raptor awareness is especially important during nesting season from mid-February to late May but needs to be considered through the end of August. Please report disturbed and/or nesting raptors to the Carson National Forest the appropriate district office (see below) and share relevant information here on MP. Human-raptor encounters can have negative impacts for the birds and climbers in the area. The Cason NF wants to maintain climbing access while protecting raptor reproduction and relies on climbers to recreate responsibly and share information in order to avoid the need for formal raptor closures.

Description
A fun roof pull on jugs to airy climbing on highly featured rock with just enough trickiness to keep it interesting.
Start up very licheny slab to a runnel of sorts and a good stance below the roof. Clip a bolt at the roof and pull the strenuous, steep roof using great, featured jugs to a good stance above the roof. Climb up and left along the featured rock passing good opportunities for small to medium gear. This is some airy, fun climbing. Aim for the two chickenheads on the skyline. Once you reach the first chicken either continue up the chickenheads and make a hard right to the shared anchor with Bleeds No More or, from the first chickenhead head up and right with fun moves to the shared anchor with Bleeds No More.
Location
On the north side of Mosaic Rock at the eastern end. This spot offers shade, often a breeze and an excellent sun deck and view. A great place to hang out on warmer days. The route is just left of Bleeds No More but starts up the same licheny slab to the roof and shares the same anchor.
Protection
One bolt, 0.3 camalots and/or small/medium nuts. A 0.75 camalot below the first bolt at the roof is nice for rope management and a confidence boost getting to the bolt. Shared fixed anchor with Bleeds No More.
