Tunnel 1 closure

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
From a belay ledge with a bolt, scramble up easy rock to the first bolt 15 feet above. Clip three bolts and then get ready to boulder V9/10 compression. This deposits you at the glory hole no hands rest. Now traverse up and right with your feet just above the hanging arete with huge exposure. Very cool indeed.
Location
Start on a belay ledge up and left of the start to Mourning Glory. There is a bolt on the ledge from which to belay.
