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
Encounter three boulder problems of different character on this unique if puzzling route. This tends to seep after rain.
Start just left of Free Immersion's left-facing corner, and engage the first boulder right away (stickclip the first bolt). Continue up the thin, vertical face to a ledge, then slab and stem up the steep, harder-than-it-looks corner. Finally, climb a thin crack splitting the headwall via small edges and jams to finish up the right arete.
