Nesting raptor when we tried to visit 10 July 21. Think its a protected species, and also it was obviously disturbed even if you weren't anywhere near the nest.

Black Rock has seabird nests on the top, so is probably best avoided during nesting season in any case.

βeta: Actually a great problem, really beefy for the grade! Great positive holds. I couldn't find beta that made it feel like a 4. if it was a stand start fair enough but with the sit start this is easy 5+ -6A. I started ss left hand in lower jug, right-hand high pinch on arete. Bicycle with feet on the arete (left press, right toe hook)
