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 is a fun problem that must be done in the winter when there is ice at the bottom of the boulder, otherwise there's a two feet of water at the base. Start with your left hand low on a sidepull and your right hand in a good finger slot at about eye level. Move up left through some mono-crimps and a long move left to a sloper followed by a long right to a sloper and straight up to top out.
