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
KTA offers up thin cruxy climbing in the first 30 feet and a bullet proof slab above. The lower section is crimpy, thin, and reachy if you are under six feet tall. The first bolt seemed oddly placed, it would be trivial to place it several feet higher, moving the second up a tad as well. The first is clipped below the waist, if you start climbing from the corner on the right. While the crux is brief, it is thin and sharp, so come with fresh tips. Overall, quite a nice route, albeit a bit short.
