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

Vehicles that remain in the closure will be towed at owners expense.

Description
This is the furthest right route at Little Eiger presently. It is just right of Tsunami of Charisma.
Per Gregger Man: there is a piton hidden under the block at the base of this route. Anchor your belayer, and knot the end of your 70m rope.
Per Boulder Climbing Community, "JeffCo Open Space has temporarily closed the route at Little Eiger, 'Is Our Children Learning?' until the base area of the climb can be stabilized. As climbers access and belay at the route, rocks and boulders are actively falling into the road, causing a major safety hazard for passing vehicles. This was also the scene of at least one accident where two climbers ended up falling onto the road.
Please respect this closure until the base area is stabilized. BCC supported this temporary closure, hanging locks and tags on the first two bolts."
