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.
Rockfax Description
The left-hand continuous crack system is tough. Start as for H.P.D. but move right to the crack. Protection is good and the holds keep appearing but the whole thing is hard work. © Rockfax

βeta: Did this and Billy Whizz tonight. Boulevard has 1 move to get established on the headwall followed by big holds to the top. Billy whizz has the hard move at the top after sustained climbing. Billy whizz has definitly got to be the same grade. Both routes are well protected, both routes are 5c and Billy whizz is more sustained. | ||
