The two areas Jefferson County Open Space intends to close in Clear Creek Canyon, shown on the attached maps, encompass the active eagle nests. If the Clear Creek eagles continue to nest in the active nests, these areas will remain closed from February 1 through July 31. If the eagles choose different nesting sites, the closures will be adjusted accordingly to protect those eagles during their breeding season.
Currently, rock climbing areas that fall inside of the seasonal raptor closures include:
Blonde Formation
Bumbling Stock
Evil Area
Ghost Crag
Highlander
Skinny Legs
Stumbling Block
Tetanus Garden
Fault Caves

Description
This magnificent line features a committing, dynamic boulder problem start, a thought-provoking twister section in the upper dihedral, and massive jugs over the steep final bulge to cap off the entire experience. The rock in the dihedral is brilliant, the moves are fun throughout and quite exposed at the top, and the continuity of the climbing makes the line feel much longer than it is.
Begin from the sloping ledge below the obvious, left-facing corner system just left of center. A dynamic boulder problem of gastons, sidepulls, underclings, and micro-footholds guards the vertical dihedral section. A few moderate moves lead to a strenuous stance below the immaculate upper corner. Exit the corner with a mind-bending sequence to reach Lonely Island Ledge just below the teetering cap rock. Hero jugs lead up the left arête and over the steep final bulge to the summit.
