Raptor Closures Effective February 1-July 31

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
Begin up some jugs (some questionable rock) to a section of sustained, enjoyable climbing. Reach a ledge, and continue with another thought provoking sequence before the anchor.
Location
This route climbs the bolt line just right of a small chossy gully and is left of Afterlife.
Protection
7 (11?) bolts + anchor.
Per Deredacted Young: this shares an anchor with Afterlife.
Per K Dub: you can easily go to the left and use the anchor for The Reaper, 10d, if someone is on Afterlife. It's just a bit higher to the left. The top is not 10d climbing. Essentially the left 3 routes share two anchors, so someone can be on The Reaper/Reincarnation and Afterlife at the same time easily.
