Access Issue: Closures Details

Seasonal closures Feb. 15-July 31. Per the Denver Post:, the Cathedral Wall and all areas above the Loch Vale-Sky Pond Trail are closed to off-trail travel! Per this RMNP website, "Initial closures now occur in Feb. 15 and April, when raptors return to the region and scout for nesting sites. Areas containing general habitat preferred by raptors are closed during this time. Once raptors have selected nesting spots, the initial closures are lifted or adjusted. The specific areas which raptors choose for nesting sites are closed."

For additional information about raptor closures, please visit the Rocky Mountain National Parks area closures website.

Description

This is a lowball boulder next to the beautiful lower Copeland Falls. There are some moderate sit starts (~V5) with bad feet as well as a crimp + arete V1.

Getting There

Park at the Wild Basin trailhead (the end of the road by the ranger station). Walk up the trail 0.3 miles until you reach Lower Copeland Falls. Follow a sign to the left to the lower falls, and you will see this lowball boulder right by the water.
