Tunnel 1 closure

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
Route just left of Stroh's. Stroh's Lite is worth doing once while you are up there to climb [105758730]]. Maybe 1/2 star by itself. Starts straight up on jugs, thin traverse left, with a steep crimpy and reachy crux. The finger pocket before the crux is completely natural. 5.11+ rating may be sandbagged.
[I stripped the hangers off of Stroh's Lite, because I didn't think the route was that great. -Darren Mabe]
