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 unnamed line in the Nomad Cave is a low start to a few of the sport climbs, but recently it has become a popular drop-off boulder problem as it is a quality alternative to the many V13s in the cave.
Begin standing on a jug ledge at the very back of the large roof, almost straight under the 5.13d Tommy’s Hard Route. Make powerful roof moves on good rock and fun holds, eventually working into an interesting undercling feature. Using some intriguing beta (and maybe a kneebar), turn the lip, and finish by dropping off the huge jugs under the first bolt of the 13d.
This is also the boulder problem start to the 14a Freaks and Geeks.
