Access Issue: Seasonal Raptor Closures
Details
Each year, the USFS monitors for raptor nesting.
A pair of golden eagles regularly nest on Bridge Creek Wall. When in effect, starting January 1, PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB or travel within 1/2 mile of Bridge Creek Wall. As a reference, the climb Condorphamine Addiction is just outside of this 1/2 mile buffer, and is OK to climb still. The closure extends through August 15, but there is active monitoring to determine if the seasonal closure can be lifted earlier.
In 2014, there was an active pair of peregrine falcons at Snow Creek Wall, but no official closure was put in effect due to the location of the falcons. The site will be continually monitored with changes or removal of closures updated as necessary.

Description
Avoid warm days for this friction fest. The first couple traversing moves as you leave Flake Fest are quite enjoyable, and if you thrive on smearing, then the rest is quite enjoyable as well. Easier climbing takes you to a ledge overgrown with a couple alder bushes. After bashing through the alder, establish on the blank wall and smear past five bolts to the top. Difficult to define a crux as almost every move after the first bolt you are waiting for your feet to blow.
