Access Alert: 2024 GOLDEN EAGLE AVOIDANCE AREA
-2024 Golden Eagle Avoidance Areas: The Early Bird Crag, The Frontera, The Undertaker Wall, The Sushi Bar, The Great Chasm
Each spring Golden Eagles return to Maple Canyon for nesting. Eagles, falcons, hawks, and other migratory birds use shallow depressions on ledges, cliffs and rock walls to build nests, often returning to the same site year after year to raise their young. The United States Forest Service (USFS) requests that visitors and recreationists avoid these areas during critical nesting periods which typically start in early March and last through late August. Avoiding recreational activity in the vicinity of the nest sites along and maintaining a safe viewing distance will help ensure survival of young birds.
Golden Eagles are protected by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service under authority of the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. A conviction of nest disturbance can carry a fine to $5,000 & one year imprisonment.

Description
A small crag with a couple of gems and a fair number of easier, ho-hum routes. The wall is still somewhat crispy (as of 2013) and should clean up nicely as it sees more traffic.
Getting There
Park at the pull-out for Anti-Gravity rock (about 0.5 miles from the entrance). Look for a trail off the road that leads to Anti-Gravity. Cut right down the wash for a ways until you find a faint trail leading up a steep embankment. Follow this trail up onto a hill, then through some bushes and eventually into a gully. The routes start in the gully and wrap around the buttress to the right.
