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.

Description

Three different cliff bands stacked on one another. A dozen or so sport, and mixed sport/trad routes with walk-offs for most climbs. Mostly bolted top anchors with chains.

Getting There

Drive west on Icicle Creek Road 5.3 miles from the Icicle Creek junction (same pullout as Hammerhead Rock). Climbers trail starts across the road from east end of pullout. Walk up trail to the east through meadow and Mad Meadows boulders, continue up and north east, keep looking left up mountain as you walk and you will see lower cliff band and routes. 10-15 minute walk. walk around to east side of lower cliff band and continue up and around through a draw to access upper climbs.
