Access Issue: 2023 Seasonal Raptor Nesting Closures
Details
JULY 5 UPDATE FROM PARK MANAGEMENT:
ALL SEASONAL CLIMBING CLOSURES FOR CLIMBING AND SLACKLINING WILL BE LIFTED ON FRIDAY, JULY 7TH THIS WEEK.
THANKS, EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP IN OBSERVING RESTRICTIONS DURING THE NESTING SEASON!
There are many seasonal raptor closures with varying dates and specific boundaries. These generally effect The Monument, Kiss of the Lepers, Picnic Lunch Wall and/or Smith Rock group, and possibly elsewhere. These usually run from February to the beginning of August, but each closure is usually shorter than this, and is dependent on the birds' behavior.

Description
This route is actually really cool, requiring a handful of different skills, totally worth visiting on your way back to the car. Funky, smeary, balancy, and then powerful, sustained, and sequential. Crux hits at about the 3rd bolt (where most people stray a bit from the bolt line)with a (at first) perplexing sequence to and through a set of positive pockets. A big move to a great hold, or more controlled moves with awful feet bring you to the arete where fun slaps and more pockets bring you to the chains. Stays difficult till the clipping JUG!
