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
Sloper Surfer is a fun, sloper, traverse lowball. Slap your way to the right on slopers (note: the really good incut holds up high are off) until you hit the good holds at the arete. Rock over, and exit directly up on really good incuts. This felt V6-7 to me, but it was also toasty. It may be as easy as V5 with better conditions. Let me know what you think for grades!
Location
It ascends the SW arete to the left of 41st Street. Start low to the left of the arete with your right hand on a slopey crimp, your left hand in a slot sidepull, and really good, hidden foot holds.
