Access Issue: 2022 raptor closure (and older info: 5 Year Raptor Seasonal Closure proposal) - now ended
Details
Update: from Phillip Nyland, NFS: the temporary closure has ended. During recent monitoring, my technician spotted no falcons or young on the cliffs or in immediate nesting area where they were seen earlier this season. She saw an adult flying around the main canyon & heard it calling. The young is now able to fly & the family will likely hang around the vicinity for a while longer but is not dependent on the nest site.
Previously: the peregrine falcons returned in 2022 to nest in the Jellystone area of Lime Creek Canyon. Thus, the White River NF was enacting a temporary closure of the area depicted in the attached Forest Order, June 9 until 8/1/22.
Two peregrine falcons successfully nested here in 2020 during a similar temp. climbing closure. In 2021, falcons didn't nest in this area, & a closure was not necessary.
A pair was attending a nest. During my last monitoring session, both birds were highly agitated until I backed away from the cliff edge out of view. The nest is in a location widely visible from access & routes at the Endless Wall & Magic Forest. In 2020, climbing was possible @ Endless Wall during the nest & nest-departure phases, but this year the nest location makes the pair & their young reactive & vulnerable to human presence at both cliffs.
The temp. closure includes the cliff faces, top of the cliffs, climbing routes, & access routes to the Magic Forest & Endless Wall at Jellystone Park. The top of the cliffs are included in the closure, b/c we have seen the peregrines there. Closure information is posted at the beginning of the access route from Forest Road 400. The closure ends August 1.
Old info: as of 6/20/21, after speaking with Phillip Nyland, NF Biologist, the study to date has shown no evidence of raptor nesting in the area. As a result, the NF anticipates no raptor nesting closures. If evidence of raptor nesting is found, the situation could change, but for now Lime Creek & the nearby areas are open.
The White River National Forest proposes to establish a 5 year regulation, known as a “Special Order,” that would restrict human occupancy surrounding a peregrine falcon nest site during the nesting period in Lime Creek Canyon, Eagle County, Aspen-Sopris Ranger District, potentially from May 15 to July 31 each year based on observed nesting activity.
The proposed Special Order extends a short-term restriction set forth from June to Aug. 1, 2020 after monitoring showed the nest to be active for the fourth year from 2016-2020, and within the past two years in close proximity to popular climbing routes. The cliffs of Lime Creek Canyon are unique and have the specific resources needed for local peregrine falcons to nest, lay eggs, and rear their young. During this life stage, adults and young peregrine falcons can be disturbed by close human presence.
It is our intent to protect the area surrounding the nest site using science-based peregrine falcon information and monitoring. As possible, the restriction may allow for climbing & other human presence where this does not interfere with local peregrine falcons to nest, lay eggs, & rear young. As possible, the area to be restricted would immediately surrounding the nest site & adjusted in location if the birds shift their nest site during the 5 year restriction period. The proposed Special Order would be lifted annually on or before Aug. 1, depending on the status of the nest & the peregrine falcons present, & the Special Order b>would remain in effect until rescinded or until 8/1/25, whichever event occurs first.

Access Issue: 2026 Raptor Closure - Endless Wall & Magic Forest - lifted
Details
8/21/26: per Jessica Ilse: closures lifted.
6/12/26: J. Ilse: “Endless Wall” and “Magic Forest” are closed due to nesting peregrine falcons. See comment & 
.
8/7/25:thank you for your support of the closure for nesting peregrine falcons. NF no longer sees falcons. End 8/8/25. - J. Schuller, NFS.
6/18/25: USFS monitored LC for nesting peregrine falcons, & a pair established a nest. The active nest is in the “Endless Wall & Magic Forest areas. They request no climbing.
2023: the nesting peregrine falcons at Lime CC are in full swing & a temporary area closure surrounding the nest until 8/1/23 or rescinded earlier. Info is posted at site. Climbing is not affected at other areas in Lime CC as a result of this temporary closure, incl. @ Endless Wall in the Jellystone & the N end of canyon. Specific to the Endless Wall, the closure begins about 75' R of Fruit of the Linen extends about 2000' up the canyon to a point about 180' N of the overhead powerline.
In 2022: closure ended. Monitoring, a tech saw no falcons/young on the cliffs or nesting area seen earlier. An adult flew around the main canyon & was calling. The young were able to fly, & the family was in the area but not nest-dependent.
In 2022: from P. Nyland - the falcons returned in 2022 to nest in Jellystone, Lime CC. Thus, White River NF closed the area in the attached Forest Order, 6/9-8/1/22.
2 peregrine falcons nested here in 2020 during a similar closure. In 2021, falcons did not nest in this area & a closure ended.

The closed area includes the cliff faces, cliff tops, routes, & access routes to Magic Forest & Endless Wall. The cliff tops were in the closure, b/c peregrines perched there. Closure info is posted at the start of the access from FR 400. Closure ended Aug. 1.
As of 6/20/21, after speaking with P. Nyland, NF Biologist, the study to date showed no evidence of nesting. As a result, the NF anticipated no raptor nesting closures. If evidence of raptor nesting is found, the situation could change, but for now Lime CC & the nearby areas - open.
The White River NF proposes to establish a 5 yr reg., a “Special Order,” restricting human occupancy surrounding a peregrine falcon nests during the nesting period in Lime CC, Eagle County, Aspen-Sopris Ranger District, potentially from May 15 to July 31 each yr based on nesting.

Description
Start on the right side of the Puppies' pillar. Follow the arete with your left hand all the way to the top. This has some amazing arete climbing on it requiring good body position, balance, and some power too. It is not quite as steep as its neighbor, but it is also very fun!
