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
This boulder captures your attention with the violent roar of the raging rapids left and beneath the climbs.
It has just a couple of problems, but the problem of the same name makes a stop there (and in Leavenworth, for that matter) very much worth it.

Getting There
The Sleeping Lady shares the pullout for Mad Meadows - an unusually long, two car deep pullout on the left as you drive away from town, at roughly 5.1 miles. Instead of heading uphill, look for a couple of trees in the middle of the pullout, and find a small, but obvious trail that leads down to rock. You will find these problems hanging over the rapids.
