Peak Climbing People: There's a Grey Wagtail nesting on the bottom ramp line of the 6a+ version of Max Pact (6b) and the 6c+ The Max Works (7a). The nest is hidden and has four eggs in it. We unknowingly climbed up there today and scared the bird off the nest, it went back on when we down climbed and left. I think it'll def abandon the nest if several people climb up there, it seemed very distressed... Grey Wagtails are on the 'Red' conservation list meaning they've suffered severe declines over recent years, so please don't climb these routes and ideally not near there either. Share the word, would hate to see these little guys abandon their nest... BMC Limestone Access Officer has been notified. Thanks
