Details
Raptor Closures Effective February 1-July 31

For more details visit: jeffco.us/open-space/alerts…
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
June 7, 2021 - TBD: Highway 6 is currently doing full road closures from Sunday night to Friday morning every week. The closure is from the junction of Highway 119 and Highway 6 to the junction of Highway 40 and Highway 6 (mile post ~260 to ~257). Vehicles that remain in the closure will be towed at owners expense.
Sundays: 7PM-4AM

Description + a fair warning
This route is not on New Hipster Rock proper, read the Location section. Once 'The Fedora' has been located: there is a somewhat obvious line that starts on low angle rock, moves into a right-facing dihedral, mounts the ledge to the left, and finishes by pawing around some loose rocks and inobvious holds before standing on top of the feature. The gear is bad (mine was), the rock is so-so, and it's over in 20'; but the fear factor on lead made it unforgettable. I had one yellow and one red Friend in my pack, fortunately I found places for both. More fortunately I didn't have to truly test either. Another placement or two may be possible if you are more prepared (small/finger sizes). A great alternative to leading this is to TR it - all the fun, none of the terror!
