Access Issue: 2024 Seasonal Raptor Closures
Details
From the Canyon Lakes Ranger District Forest Service:
Fort Collins, Colo. (March 7, 2024) – to protect nesting birds of prey, the U.S. Forest Service is implementing annual area closures in several popular recreation areas throughout the Canyon Lakes Ranger District. The closures include Triple Tier, south of CO Highway 14; Boston Peak, north of CO Highway 14; Grazing Allotment Crag, northwest of Prairie Divide Road; and Mt. Olympus, southeast of US Highway 34. See the closure map for more details. Effective through July 31, 2024, the closures protect established raptor territories to ensure the birds remain undisturbed during sensitive breeding and nesting seasons.
The Canyon Lakes Ranger District partners with Colorado Parks & Wildlife and the Northern Colorado Climbers Coalition to monitor nesting progress and to inform climbers about the importance of giving raptors space to raise their young.
Federal and state laws prohibit disturbing any nesting bird of prey. Visitors can help protect wildlife by respecting all closures. Signs will be posted at key access points into the closed areas. Additional closure information is available online.

Description
So the story goes...disaster is what brought the fate of this crag into existence. A boat rescue upstream closed the canyon, and with nowhere to go, Low Hanging Fruit Crag was discovered, sunken in the low depths of the canyon. On this destined day, the toprope "Titanic; was launched as one of the biggest and bestest rigs at the crag before later getting bolted, cleaned, and sent.
Despite saying "I'll never let go," some loose burgs of stone sent the FA team back to the ground before getting it under control and firing off this masterpiece that's more beauty than tragedy.
Great climbing on positive holds lead you up to a short overhanging section. Move through it and up fun face to easier climbing.
