Access Issue: 2024 Seasonal Raptor Closures
Details
From the Canyon Lakes Ranger District Forest Service:
Fort Collins, Colo. (March 7, 2024) – to protect nesting birds of prey, the U.S. Forest Service is implementing annual area closures in several popular recreation areas throughout the Canyon Lakes Ranger District. The closures include Triple Tier, south of CO Highway 14; Boston Peak, north of CO Highway 14; Grazing Allotment Crag, northwest of Prairie Divide Road; and Mt. Olympus, southeast of US Highway 34. See the closure map for more details. Effective through July 31, 2024, the closures protect established raptor territories to ensure the birds remain undisturbed during sensitive breeding and nesting seasons.
The Canyon Lakes Ranger District partners with Colorado Parks & Wildlife and the Northern Colorado Climbers Coalition to monitor nesting progress and to inform climbers about the importance of giving raptors space to raise their young.
Federal and state laws prohibit disturbing any nesting bird of prey. Visitors can help protect wildlife by respecting all closures. Signs will be posted at key access points into the closed areas. Additional closure information is available online.

Description
Per Darren Wong200243938: this boulder has tipped over recently!
Location: on Hank's Boulder. See "Hank's Lunge" for more detail on finding boulder.
This problem starts low on the black face and climbs the crimps that are directly right of an arete. Scarface is left of the problem "Fuck You Finger" which climbs black face to the two obvious slopers 7 feet up the wall.
Start sitdown with right hand on small crimp. Move left and up to more crimps, to sloping lip, and then up and right to decent hold. Topout and descend tree.
This is a great, little, granite, crimper problem.
