Per Mike McHugh, ECSP: The upper loop of the Rattlesnake Gulch Trail, above the Crags Hotel Ruin and the
Continental Divide Overlook, is closed effective immediately.
This includes the Continental Crag climbing area.
These areas are closed to all activities, including rock climbing and hiking, through July 15 or until further notice, to protect nesting golden eagles on the south side of the canyon.
Golden Eagles are protected by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service under authority of the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. A conviction of nest disturbance can carry a fine up to $5,000 and one year imprisonment.

Description
This is the obvious line as you walk up to the boulder. It comes out of the hole off a big jug with barely any feet. As the name implies, a kneebar gets you through the first move, and a knee bar pad helps. Climb up through some tension, thuggish moves to good crimps. Head up to the "crimp block" and up over through crimps and slopers to the scary but protectable topout. There are a lot of moves on this one. It is very atypical for Eldo. It is mostly big holds with big moves. We are not necessarily claiming the FA, but Bob Horan commented that he had never seen anyone on it, and we also did a lot of cleaning on the topout! This is a VERY good problem for the grade. It is a great addition, go try this thing with a group, and bring a kneebar pad! Proud line!
