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
Another tricky and technical route for the wall, this route tackles the slabby face directly left of Someday Never Comes. Easy moves up a chossy corner lands one on top of a boulder where the real fun begins. Five bolts of slab on sharp, little crimps and smeary foot holds leads to a couple of big moves near the top. The last move off of the jug at the second to last bolt requires a fun deadpoint to gain the slopey ledge (the crux). After this, enjoy fairly chill moves to the anchor. The anchor is comprised of one of Luebben’s old directionals (it may look scary, but it’s still very strong).
This is slightly easier than its neighbors, but it’ll need some repeats for the grade to settle.
