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
The crux is near the bottom at about the first and second bolts. The face here is very technical, and the holds here are thin and small. Above the climbing is much easier, and the distance between bolts seems spaced far apart in one section. Here, my partner and I thought a mid-sized cam could be placed. The climbing is easy though, so it is not necessary.
Location
This is the furthest left bolt line at the crag. There are lots of bushes near the base. You get down from a two bolt anchor shared with Ketosis.
