FACE CANYON IS CLOSED TO ALL ACTIVITY! There are red railed hawks nesting there!
If you are driving by and see anyone in the area, or any of the three currently closed areas, please do the birds a solid by sharing the news and asking them to leave.
Closure Update: 2/21/2020
If you’re out in Carbody or Scary canyon, be on the lookout for signs like the one below! Bird closures are in effect! The following are closed: all of SCARY Canyon, and Hershey Squirt to Raisin the Titanic in EAST CARBODY.
Please spread the word and if you see climbers violating the closure, let them know. As stated before, these areas are super sensitive! In the case of Carbody, instead of closing the whole canyon we’re asking that these closures be respected, pets kept on a leash, and noise levels kept to a minimum (ex. no music).
Thank you to all of you for respecting closures and helping keep open local crags!
