Crags on Eldorado Mountain, such as Mickey Mouse wall and Cryptic Crags, are outside of park boundaries and may still be subject to Boulder County closures.
Previously in 2023: per M. McHugh, ECSP: the upper loop of the Rattlesnake Gulch Trail, above the Crags Hotel Ruin, & the
Continental Divide Overlook, is closed effective immediately. This included Continental Crag.
These areas are closed to all activities, including rock climbing & hiking, through 7/15 or until further notice, to protect nesting golden eagles on the S side of the canyon.
Golden Eagles are protected by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service under authority of the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. A conviction of nest disturbance can carry a fine to $5,000 & one year imprisonment.
See the map in the photo section for terrain closure.
Previous years: per Dustin Bergman, CO State Parks Officer #770, ECSP:

Check Park site for current closures:

Description
Begin as low as you want, even sit start, on the west face, northern end. A few moves through pleasant huecos leads you to utilize a few disconcerting flakey crimps, and surmount a decent ledge. Finish straight up another 8 feet through a hueco and hard to see holds, or follow the ledge, traversing to the right (south) 10 feet for a fun alternate finish, meeting up with the topout of "West Crack".
