CCC Raptor Nesting Closure 1 (MM 270, W of Tunnel 1). Photo reconfiguration: Ron Keller.

CCC Raptor Nesting Closure 2 (E of Tunnel 2). In 2016, the closure WAS lifted June 9 for ONLY the 2016 season, per Eric Krause, JeffCo OS Ranger. Photo reconfiguration: Ron Keller.

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

Start by climbing Papa Johnny into the end jug of Nomad Roof, then downclimb into the flake using a series of kneebars. Then climb Nomad Roof backwards to finish at the starting jugs at the base of the seam in the cave.

I climbed this link-up in the winter of 2021/22, naming it Papa Mommy with a grade of V9. Who knows if I was really the first person to do the sequence? Another link-up climbed first (I think) by Tanner Bauer climbs Papa Johnny into the Nomad Cave Left - named Big Poppa (V10). With links like these, the FA and grade is such a joke to the point where it doesn’t make a difference, but I figured I’d at least get the info right for the database. Jun 14, 2023
