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 route is ok but not that great. The most difficult part is near the bottom as you angle to the right. There are small ledges here to rest on but tough moves in between them. From a big ledge about halfway up, you move right into a gully which provides fairly easy climbing and brings you to the top of the wall. If you don't move right near the bottom, you will run into two bolts. These are likely on the route A Little Piece of South Dakota which is listed on the main page for this crag in the list of routes. One of these bolts has a quicklink on it and one is quarter inch with an "SMC" hanger.
Location
This route is on the left side of the rock to the right of North Dakota. It starts behind a large tree where a thin crack angles up to the right. You walk off to the left (east) after you top out.
