Access Issue: Partial closure of Screeching Wall due to owls
Details
As per Jon Jones: "There is a voluntary closure in place at Screeching Wall for the section between (and including) Fanticide and Isis in Chains due to nesting Great Horned Owls on Hollow Stones."
Description
Climb the dark grey dyke but don't let it suck you in. Enjoy the good holds and the pump.
From John Wilder: "Watching Bananas Bend goes up the line of bolts for two bolts, then steps right on small holds with big feet, to another bolt. Follow this line up to a ledge, then step left and clip a bolt. Follow this line straight to the top of the wall.
There is a connection to the route to the right part way up this route, so when given the choice, stay left to finish Bananas."

Location
From John Wilder: "Head up onto the ledge that is at the base of the Screeching Wall and move left- climbing up a bit to a two bolt belay at the base of a black/grey chunk of rock. The bolts are a bit left of a tree stump."
Watch yourself on the belay ledge and rapping. It's fine, just be careful.
