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
This is currently the leftmost bolted line at the crag. It is fun and well-protected. The climbing winds up being boy-ish but is not as difficult as you might suspect.
Pull aboard the slab, and lean back to get the first roof. The move will get you warmed up if this is your first route of the day. Keep finding big, juicy holds until you get to the 2nd roof. Here, using the groove alone is not the only way. The finish is shared with the two routes to the right.
