So is this place actually closed for nesting? I remember going up there in late november (long after most birds ween their chicks) and saw the closure sign. I talked to someone in Santa Cruz and he said the closure is not active, the signs are just still up. What's the real deal? Anyone know?

Just drive up there and check. If it's closed there should be small white/black signs indicating so at the gate.
If closed, go to Castle or Aquarian or Indian.
The closure sign looks like this;

"Possible hazards"?
Those must be tough birds.

That's more energy than a .45 ACP.

Well, didn't go to Summit but there were a TON of cars there when i drove by. Went to Goat Rock instead; that roof was one of the scarier topropes I've ever done. I guess it didn't help that there was a UCSC student screaming about how she didn't want to die about 30 feet to my right. Billy Goat rock was pretty rad though, only one leadable climb however.
I guess I'll try to get a ranger on the phone about Summit Rock.

Try Mt. Doom next time Allez, really nice location, cool routes. Beware of bats in huecos/holes.
