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 climb is on the right on the cliff. The first bolt is above a large roof. This bolt seems a bit high at first, but the climbing is easy up to it. The crux is about 3/4s of the way up where the wall steepens. The rock quality deteriorates a little at the crux. Hopefully holds don't come off in the future.
Location
The climb is on the right side of the cliff about 20 feet left of Old Dogs. The other routes are easily seen from the Catslab approach trail. You can lower or rap off the climb.
