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 fun if you want something else fairly easy at the wall. The hardest part is at the beginning when you move into the layback finger crack that ascends to the right. You can stem here and use a jug on Valley Boys to get through the difficulties Above, the crack ends and you have two choices: you can either go straight up some suspect rock with great looking holds or continue to the right and go up a small corner. The two options meet on a small ledge, and fairly easy rock takes you to the top. There is some loose rock on the route and at the top. I cleaned some of it.
Location
The start is at the same location as Valley Boys near the left center of the wall. The arching finger crack near the bottom is easy to see.
