Horned Owl Nest-Eggs

  • Past Lives – 3 Pitches- 5.9/
    •  When rapping, a horned owl came out of her nest and spun me around. I would have never climbed this route if I knew she was there. Please avoid this route March-April. A raven tried to steal the eggs and was almost successful. She finally came back to them. Prophesy Wall, St. George, UT, March, 2007

    Score!

    Nice find, Dow! Too bad she almost lost her eggs, though.

    Courtney, you know me, so you can imagine how bad I felt watching this go down...she would not come back until we pulled the rope and got some distance....yet that meant us leaving the raven alone...a catch 22 that we started....if it turned out bad, I would still be scarred I think...Stacy and I did Zion yesterday...ran up Ashtar and a few other things......the sunset and temps were just perfect...cheers

    Yeah, I can imagine how you might have felt if the raven got hold of those eggs.

    I'm glad you two enjoyed Zion again. We're headed that way this weekend.
