Please avoid raptor nests. El Cajon Mountain- Golden Eagles nested successfully at this site in 2009, after relocating twice between alternate nest sites. The Golden Eagle nest at El Cajon Mountain was not successful in Spring 2010. This nest was successful and fledged young in 2011 - 2021. Details from USFS posted here: fs.usda.gov/detail/clevelan…
The El Cajon Mountain climbing area is in close proximity to the San Diego River Park Foundation property. This property's purpose is to protect and conserve San Diego's threatened habitat and wildlife in perpetuity. Specifically, the San Diego River Park Foundation are protecting golden eagles that nest in the area and ceanothus, a California lilac that is an endemic sensitive plant species. Please avoid and limit recreational activities at the San Diego River Park Foundation property to promote San Diego's threatened habitat and wildlife. Thank you!

Description
Start 5 feet left of an 8 ft high block. Climb up to a right diagonalling thin crack (gear recommended), then up and left to a small ledge. Continue up meandering right and left following the obvious line of weakness in the rock. The route finishes up a steep face to a bolted anchor.
Fun moves and a good line mark this route as a good first pitch on the way up the mountain. From the belay you can continue up the second pitch of "Cause for Pause" or start into "Parallel Universe".
