Access Issue: Seasonal Nesting Closure
Details
Eagles, falcons, hawks, and other migratory birds use shallow depressions on ledges, cliffs and rock walls to build nests, often returning to the same site year after year to raise their young. The Forest Service and Northern AZ Climbers Coalition avoid certain routes during critical nesting periods which typically start April 1st and last through early August. All routes south of Shaman School (Climber's left) will be closed to climbing. Please refer to USFS signage at the crag for the most current closure information. Successful partnership with the Forest Service biologists has allowed for closure of select routes, instead of full areas, and we ask that climbers respect this privilege by adhering to these closures. If you have questions, concerns, or would like to report a bird sighting, please reach out to the Northern Arizona Climbers Coalition at nazcc@nazcc.org

Description
Possibly the first completed route during the modern age of development at The Peaks...
Offers great crack climbing and fun movement in a large dihedral system right at the base of the entrance trail.
Unfortunately a party got the chop shop fever at some point and decided to unnecessarily chop some bolts making the start a little exciting.
It is possible to use some of the bolts that remain near although long runners will be necessary.
With a bit of hard looking you can find a small and very tricky nut placement that can (sort of) protect moves getting onto the bulge below main dihedral system.
3 stars after the fever sweats of the onsight...
