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.

Access Issue: 2024 - road closure

Description
This is one of Lincoln's better low end moderates and is on one of the shallow-side’s most easily accessible boulders. Start low on two obvious flat crimps, and balance up the left side of the slightly off-vertical face and arete. This is trickier and more subtle than you'd expect, and it climbs better than it looks. I was surprised this wasn’t on here yet - the cat's certainly already out of the bag with Lincoln.
Location
It ascends the obvious face directly off/to the right of the trail 1/4 of the way down the shallow side, just below the top boulderfield that King Critter and A Tension Span are in.
