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
We found bulky, moderate angle ice on the right, and steep icicles with thin mixed sections on the left. Finish under the trees to reach a tat anchor. If you stay too far right before traversing left and end up topping out, you might have to down climb on belay through the trees to reach the anchor.
We rapped with a 70 m with coils on the ground. It might be possible with a 60 m rope, dependent on snow at the base; bring v-thread tool if you attempt this.
