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
June 7, 2021 - TBD: Highway 6 is currently doing full road closures from Sunday night to Friday morning every week. The closure is from the junction of Highway 119 and Highway 6 to the junction of Highway 40 and Highway 6 (mile post ~260 to ~257). Vehicles that remain in the closure will be towed at owners expense.
Sundays: 7PM-4AM Monday-Thursday: 4PM-4AM
Description
Start matched on the right side of the 3 foot long slopey rail located at the center of the boulder. Cross left hand to a poor sloper located up and left of the "Speedbump" sloper feature (the jugs on warmup 2 are off). Use some funky beta to reach the micro slopey crimp out right (located 8 inches from the Pink Squiggles arete). Bump your right hand to the slopey arete. Hold the swing! Finish as of Pink Squiggles.
Protection
A few pads and a spotter. Harness and quickdraw to cross the tyrolean.
