Access Issue: Some rocks in this area are on private property. Also, this is a seasonal raptor nesting area.
Details
See the USGS topo map mountainproject.com/photo/1… showing the private property boundaries (shaded areas).
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
Starts with unprotectable slab for 15 feet. Uncertain of gear as we top roped it after doing The Fake P. Follow the fall line directly below the anchor that is shared with Lock and Key and The Fake P. Slightly harder variation starts just a few feet to left (blue line left of rope in picture).
Location
This route is outside of Beastie Alley to climbers right - currently the furthest route to right of Beastie Alley (far west side of Mosaic Rock). Shared anchor for Lock and Key and The Fake P can be seen from the ground (may need to stand away from wall a bit) - this climb is directly below the anchor.
