Access Issue: Falcon Nesting Closure at Castle Rock
Details
Castle Rock in Pine Canyon is closed for peregrine falcon nesting season, from February 1 through July 31st every year. All other Mount Diablo area crags are open to climbing. The news release is linked here parks.ca.gov/NewsRelease/493.
Description
Center Face sits on the south facing slabby wall and starts at the bottom, center section of rock, just left of a tree. Thin face moves up and right gain you to steeper rock where there is one bolt. Move up and right past bolt to easier climbing to the top. Fun climbing for the moderate level climber and variations to the left can increase the difficulty by a grade or so.
Protection
Although this south face would make excellent moderate leads, there is only one bolt midway up. If you are tempted to lead this, be careful as this bolt is a teaser and you may find yourself quickly high off the ground, with no gear, and a few scary down climbing moves to get off. Believe me... Bring long slings to set up a proper toprope.
