This is the crag that sits across the river from the road, between the Merlin formation and Tunnel 2. The crag sits right on the river's edge and is identified by a fixed line across its base. Rock quality is not as nice down low, but gets much better as you climb upwards.
Getting There
Take the New River trail and you can either rappel from the anchors at the top down to the fixed line, or continue down to Merlin and start heading back upstream on a faint trail past the tip of the big dead tree leaning on the hillside. Make your way back to the wall and scramble up and left across good ledges to some bolts at the dropoff. This is the start of the fixed line... Rappel down the small 10 foot wall to the ledge at the base of the cliff. (You either need to climb out, or ascend back up this short cliff to get out.)
If the fixed line at the base bothers anyone, I would be more than happy to remove it. However, it is really the only safe way to navigate across the base of the wall.
I did see JeffCo rangers looking at the crag a few days ago, that's the reason I posted the last comment. Darren, it would make for a nice approach to move the log, but I don't know if JeffCo would be upset over that also. There is a short approach during the winter, the water gets low enough to make a long jump between two boulders about 50 feet downstream from the crag, but I would definitely be down to put the log in place, let me know. The routes are pretty fun too, especially 'B.F.F.,' it climbs really good stone with some perfect holds. Let me know if you ever want to get out and climb.
The fixed line is fine. We're in the process of inventorying the climbing areas in Clear Creek Canyon (i.e.- measuring impacts, taking photos, etc.) that's why we were looking at the crag.
Please do not drop the dead tree across the creek. Doing so will create a very serious river hazard.
