For more info, visit dnr.state.co.us/newsapp/pre…
Access Issue: 2023 Seasonal Closures - lifted
Details
Crags on Eldorado Mountain, such as Mickey Mouse wall and Cryptic Crags, are outside of park boundaries and may still be subject to Boulder County closures.
Previously in 2023: per M. McHugh, ECSP: the upper loop of the Rattlesnake Gulch Trail, above the Crags Hotel Ruin, & the
Continental Divide Overlook, is closed effective immediately. This included Continental Crag.
These areas are closed to all activities, including rock climbing & hiking, through 7/15 or until further notice, to protect nesting golden eagles on the S side of the canyon.
Golden Eagles are protected by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service under authority of the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. A conviction of nest disturbance can carry a fine to $5,000 & one year imprisonment.
See the map in the photo section for terrain closure.
Previous years: per Dustin Bergman, CO State Parks Officer #770, ECSP:
Seasonal Raptor Closures
Check Park site for current closures:

Double check prior to venturing there. Thanks!
Description
This fun and exhilarating taste of Eldo begins eighty feet up the long, prominent ramp left of the roof routes on Redgarden Wall that leads to the base of such climbs as Ruper and Rosy Crucifixion.
P1. Look for an old pin a foot off the ramp and a zig-zagging line of chalked holds. Le Toit is the easiest line in the area, probably not a good idea to mistake it for the first pitch of the The Wisdom (lower down). Set a belay, and head up and right on steep, funky 5.9 climbing that has less-than-deal pro. Forty feet up, angle back left slightly, and clip a bad, upside down pin. Above this is a good bolt. Clip the bolt off an awkward, balancy stance (probably not good to blow this clip), then crank the crimpy crux face moves to a rock strewn ledge with a two bolt anchor.
P2. The second pitch surmounts the roof which is surprisingly less-steep-than-it-appears from the ground. Start with a creepy, insecure, 8+ traverse right to an ancient pin (which can be backed up for the second), then crank up the obvious chalked jugs to a good bolt and sloping ledge. Pop around the roof on the right, .10b/c, and continue up for twenty feet to a two bolt anchor.
P3. For the third pitch, move the belay fifty feet right on a 5.0 traverse, and set it in a typical Eldo slanting ramp system. Look for some short corners and an inobvious traverse into them from the left. Make an unprotected 5.8 traverse into these corners, and continue up and slightly left on steep 5.8 climbing with good holds and pro to reach the Upper Ramp.
This is a good route with plenty of funky Eldo climbing.
