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
Follow a left-angling crack that splits the lower half of the wall. Move right midway up the crack after clipping a fixed pin, but before it turns into a corner feature, finish on an easier but sparsely protected slab to anchors in a pegmatite depression.
-Poudre Canyon guidebook, 2010.
Fun moves past the pin lead to a slopey ledge with a good crimp just above. Power through a left sidepull (awesome move!) to the ledge above.
This would be a very tricky lead on gear, no gear past the pin if you're going up and right, but it is easily top-roped by climbing Bandito's Bat Roost.
