Access Issue: Seasonal Raptor Closures
Details
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.

Access Issue: Parking Pull Out Controversy
Details
"I parked in the pull off just upstream of the trail. A property owner pulled up and told us that they don't appreciate climbers sleeping at that pull off at night and that they were particularly bothered by all the "fornicating and defecating near the river" that is in direct line of sight from their house. It seems like this might become more of a problem down the road with landowner relations."
"The landowner has escalated to posting his own "No Parking" signs, and leaving threatening notes on vehicles stating that people will be towed (friends got one over the weekend). Access Fund, Mountaineers, and WCC have consulted with the county and the county says it is legal to park there and asked that any confrontations or threats from the owner get reported to the Chelan county sheriff."
