About this Item

"Arguably, if anything marks the surge of climbing in Clear Creek Canyon, it was the imposition of the bolting ban in the Boulder Mountain Parks in 1989, followed closely by the climbing management plan for Eldorado Canyon State Park. While new route development in Eldo was tapering off, the Flatirons were the epicenter of Boulder sport climbing. Having been handed their hats in the rich sandstone terrain around Boulder, climbers in search of new, interesting, and difficult routes turned their attention elsewhere. Clear Creek's proximity to Denver and Boulder, new route potential and steep quality stone made it one of the more attractive places for sportas climbing development."
