Access Issue: Raptor Closures Details

March 1st-July 31st: Devil's Head Rock, Sin City, & Recovery Wall are closed for raptor protection. The vast majority of the other crags are unaffected by the closure. Please visit:
fs.usda.gov/alerts/psicc/al… for additional information and maps.

Description

Climb the overhanging bulge on the left side of the prow. I found the crux a bit burly and tricky but well-protected. A second easier crux is found near the top. Make sure not to cut too far left onto ?Fintastic?.
