Access Issue: Closures
Details
Seasonal closures Feb. 15-July 31. Per the Denver Post:, the Cathedral Wall and all areas above the Loch Vale-Sky Pond Trail are closed to off-trail travel! Per this RMNP website, "Initial closures now occur in Feb. 15 and April, when raptors return to the region and scout for nesting sites. Areas containing general habitat preferred by raptors are closed during this time. Once raptors have selected nesting spots, the initial closures are lifted or adjusted. The specific areas which raptors choose for nesting sites are closed."
For additional information about raptor closures, please visit the Rocky Mountain National Parks area closures website.

Description
The fictional character of Seldom Seen Smith is probably more admired by the boating community than the climbing community, but this Jack Mormon raft guide shows a calm and resolve in the face of uncertainty that all climbers should admire. Try to channel some of this energy as you launch up the faint dihedral that forms the start of the climb and all will be well.
Start in the faint dihedral to the left of The Route that Kor Forgot, and follow this to the top of the buttress in two pitches. Then, walk left to, and then climb the left arete of central upper buttress.
