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
Starting at the seam for Hungry Wolf, make your way up some cool sidepulls and jams until you exit the seam to the right, pulling the shouldery crux. Hungry then splits right here to join Stuffed Wolf, but you stay left and rejoin the seam for some easier (but not easy) moves and a solid hand jam rest to the top. It seems to have clean up well and climbs very well. It can be used as a warm-up for the harder routes. The cruxy nature might give some the impression of 12a or 12b depending.
Protection
Bolts to chains. On 11/15, there were fixed draws. As of May 2024, per Jan Rous, there are permadraws.
