Access Issue: Most of these boulders are within the Mt. Blue Sky (formerly Mount Evans) Wilderness Area, regulated & patrolled by the US.
Details
Most boulders are located within the Mt. Blue Sky (formerly Mount Evans) Wilderness Area, regulated & patrolled by the USFS. Climbers should be on their best behavior, practice Leave No Trace. Please abide by these requirements: it can take vegetation decades to recover from damage. Place crash pads judiciously, & keep brushing to a minimum. Before adding new lines, considered the damage that may be caused by additional foot traffic, pads, etc.
Chalk is unsightly to non-climbers. Please avoid chalking up boulder problems that are visible from the Chicago Lakes Trail, & in general, keep chalk use to a minimum. Brush all tick marks off after every session. Use containers that prevent chalk spills & if you do spill, clean it up.
Stashing crash pads is forbidden by the USFS. Pads will be confiscated.
Noise: this is a Wilderness area that is enjoyed by many, mostly non-climbers. The last thing passing hikers want to hear are f-bombs, iPod speakers, grunting, etc. In fact, most other CLIMBERS don't want to hear any of these things either. The easiest way for us to lose access is to elicit complaints from other user groups.
Dogs must be leashed at all times, they scare wildlife. Obviously, clean up after your dog.

Description
The unrepeated problem Jenny Craig begins on the left side of an 80 degree slab and traverses up and right towards an arete, at which point it steers upwards to the top. The hands are deceivingly poor during the traverse and the feet are downright miserable. As you get higher on the problem, the rock quality gets poorer and has broken during subsequent attempts resulting in at least one sketchy fall. However, I guess that's what you should expect from a hard unrepeated slab.
Considering the inobvious nature of the line, and the lack of additional feedback and ascents, I've given it only one star.

Location
Jenny Craig is found easily if one starts at the Bierstadt Corridor and walks down valley for 20 yards, then walks directly south (uphill) towards the talus and the looming walls above. Find the 80 degree slab facing downhill towards the willows when you reach the maze of jumbled talus blocks just before Public Execution begins to come into view.
