hey hey,
yeah so i was having a talk with that ranger at araps last weekend,is his name Max?¿
aaaaanyway.he was talking and talking as he does adn he said they were considering restriction
to clibers on tiger wall during the spring.he said mainly because of the birds, but also due to
reptiles coming out of hibernation.aparently we climbers/walkers have an impact on the poor little
things.
he is a strange guy though.has anyone else heard this from other sourses?¿

Pretty common for there to be "unoffical" bans on tiger wall for spring, the peregrine flcons are quite aggressive anyway.

yeah, having been chased off resignation by falcons, i decided you *really* dont want to argue with them...

the bans are there to keep climbers from being swooped off too many climbs and more importantly stop us from disturbing the nests.
