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
Just left of High Tech Sector, there is a flat spot at the base of the cliff. Above this, there are four short routes. Tumbling Stocks is the 2nd from the left of these. It features interesting mantles onto sloping, smooth ledges. Though it is fairly continuous, there are two crux sections, the first around the 3rd bolt and the second at a short, left-facing corner near the end of the pitch. Docked a star because the 2nd crux can be avoided by moving about 2' left.
