Access Issue: 2024 Seasonal Raptor Closures
Details
From the Canyon Lakes Ranger District Forest Service:
Fort Collins, Colo. (March 7, 2024) – to protect nesting birds of prey, the U.S. Forest Service is implementing annual area closures in several popular recreation areas throughout the Canyon Lakes Ranger District. The closures include Triple Tier, south of CO Highway 14; Boston Peak, north of CO Highway 14; Grazing Allotment Crag, northwest of Prairie Divide Road; and Mt. Olympus, southeast of US Highway 34. See the closure map for more details. Effective through July 31, 2024, the closures protect established raptor territories to ensure the birds remain undisturbed during sensitive breeding and nesting seasons.
The Canyon Lakes Ranger District partners with Colorado Parks & Wildlife and the Northern Colorado Climbers Coalition to monitor nesting progress and to inform climbers about the importance of giving raptors space to raise their young.
Federal and state laws prohibit disturbing any nesting bird of prey. Visitors can help protect wildlife by respecting all closures. Signs will be posted at key access points into the closed areas. Additional closure information is available online.

Description
The [Nod] actually has a few routes that were established a little while back. I submit these for the few hardy soles, who have the desire to consider climbing with a rope in the Cache La Poudre Canyon. Ask around, there are many more routes, but nobody seems to want to climb them. There are too many exceptional places to climb elsewhere. But, if you're in the area and are of the right mind, you just might experience something special about 'The Poudre' that transcends the climbing of this rustic place.
The [Nod] lies just above and to the right of the East of Eden Dihedral, notice the right hand arête, and the cracks on the face to the left. All of the routes may be descended by walk-off, or rappelling Moment of Clarity.
These include:
La Royal, 5.10-, 2p, bolts & gear.
With Cheese, 5.10+, 1p, bolts & gear.
Pulp Friction, 11-, 1p, bolts & gear.
Moment of Clarity, 11, 2p, 145', bolts & gear.
This has been reorganized to fit the structure of the database.
