Reason: Nesting Birds
2023 update: There are Kestrels nesting in Cascara Crack again this year. The restriction applies to Cascara Crack to SAE inclusive.
For Pulpit Groove and Suspense/etc please either top out or belay back in the trees away from the edge of the ledge to help avoid disturbing the birds.

βeta: Made a comfortable first lead, lots of places for gear and a good amount of options for anchors but if crowded may want to find a spot on the ledge above | βeta? | |

βeta: Not as nice to climb as Snail Crack, but still great easy placements and lots of generous ledges to stand on while deciding what to use. Both of these routes make nice starting points for newbies, like me! | βeta? | |
