Access Issue: Seasonal raptor closing on Ballfield Slabs.
Details
Per CT-DEEP, the Ballfield Slabs close May - August due to active raptor nesting in the area.
Description
This fine route has a defined crux early on gaining the main arete and then cruises up the arete, followed by a short traverse to the Kinesthesis anchors. Start on the larger grassy ledge below and right of the start for Kinesthesis. Work some easy moves up a flake past two bolts to the left side of the arete. From here make the 5.10 moves stepping out right onto the slab and using holds on the right side. Make a move to the obvious jug on the right side of the arete and continue up a move or two to a good stance to clip the 3rd bolt. Follow the left side arete up past five more bolts to top of the arete. Either traverse left along good holds/feet along the face 2 ft or so before the lip or traverse left along the lip for more open handed climbing.
CAUTION: There is a large loose block in the crack below the small pine tree. Do not disturb!
