Access Issue: Falcon Nesting Closure at Castle Rock
Details
Castle Rock in Pine Canyon is closed for peregrine falcon nesting season, from February 1 through July 31st every year. All other Mount Diablo area crags are open to climbing. The news release is linked here parks.ca.gov/NewsRelease/493.
Description
The crux is getting off the ground. Once above the initial moves you can follow the crack (5.7ish) to just below the top. Theirs a blank section of rock I have not figured out how to get around so topping out would be runnout and difficult on lead. The crack is solid and a real fun intro to crack climbing, if you can get to it. Personally I think it's best to toprope this one.
