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
Description
Start on a small ramp, and head up towards the large flake, which leads into a chimney section. Varied, moderate climbing leads to a crack for a gear anchor. A webbing rappel station with rings is up and to the right. If you would rather walk off, a lovely hike down is possible, which we titled "Cactus Surprise". This is another scattered, adventure, trad moderate in CCC. We are sure someone must have gone up this before us, but it showed no signs of it.
