Raptor Closures Effective February 1-July 31

Tunnel 1 closure
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
Description
This climbs an amazing face along the river just west of the bridge by Tunnel 2.
Start sitting on an undercling/sidepull, make a left, and move to good sidepull. Then move your right hand to another sidepull. Match your right hand, and continue right and up on underclings/crimps to a scary topout. This is only climbeable when the water is frozen.
Location
It is on an amazing face along the river just west of the bridge when walking towards Sting Zone. You can see Aqua Huck and The Wall of Justice from it. This is maybe 200 yards west of the bridge.
