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
A great boulder that is characterized by the committing "v3" moves about 15 feet up. It changed significantly in character a few years ago when the easy start holds (formed by a large plate) broke off. Now you have to do v7-ish boulder start to get up to the fun move up high.
The original route without the plate-breakage was a 4 star line. With the breakage below, it's probably worth 3 stars. The lower moves aren't anything to write home about, but the upper section has maintained character, and is worth grimacing through the mini crimps below.
