Details
Per Dustin Bergman, Eldorado Canyon State Park Officer: the upper third of the West Redgarden trail and Rewritten descent trail suffered significant damage during that storm that came through a few weeks ago. Please consider choosing alternates routes lower on the trail.
Beginning Feb. 1st each year, a seasonal wildlife closure will be in effect on Redgarden Wall in Eldorado Canyon State Park to protect nesting and roosting sites of the canyons falcons. The closure is in effect through July 31st unless lifted early due to early fledging or inactivity.
The closure includes the following climbing routes: The Naked Edge (last 3 pitches only), The Diving Board, Centaur, Redguard (last 3 pitches only), Red Ant, Semi-Wild, Anthill Direct (last 3 pitches only), and The Sidetrack.
For more info, visit dnr.state.co.us/newsapp/pre…

Access Issue: 2023 Seasonal Closures - lifted
Details
Update: as of 6/7/23 per Mike McHugh, ECSP: all closures have been lifted within Eldorado Canyon State Park, including Continental Crag.
Crags on Eldorado Mountain, such as Mickey Mouse wall and Cryptic Crags, are outside of park boundaries and may still be subject to Boulder County closures.
Previously in 2023: per M. McHugh, ECSP: the upper loop of the Rattlesnake Gulch Trail, above the Crags Hotel Ruin, & the
Continental Divide Overlook, is closed effective immediately. This included Continental Crag.
These areas are closed to all activities, including rock climbing & hiking, through 7/15 or until further notice, to protect nesting golden eagles on the S side of the canyon.
Golden Eagles are protected by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service under authority of the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act and the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. A conviction of nest disturbance can carry a fine to $5,000 & one year imprisonment.
See the map in the photo section for terrain closure.

Description
The Art Of Slappiness ascends the overhanging arete left of Vertigo's second pitch. This short and powerful feature was bolted by Dan Michael (and named Nervous In Suburbia) but abandoned as an open project. From the belay ledge below the 11b corner of Vertigo, step left until directly beneath the exposed edge. Launch upward, protected by a small cam, an old pin and a bolt, and enjoy a slaphappy boulder problem (with one more bolt) that leads to a good rest. Clip the last bolt, float up the harder-than-they-look final moves, and belly flop onto the belay ledge with three bolts.
Location
Approach The Art Of Slappiness by climbing the first long (two short pitches in the book) 5.9 pitch of Vertigo to a bolted belay ledge.
Protection
Place a small cam (#1 or #2 TCU) at the base of Vertigo's corner for your first piece. Bring one more small cam (#0 or #1 TCU) to protect the first hard moves, then clip a fixed pin and three bolts en route to the anchor. The bolted anchor is placed far back on the flat ledge atop this pitch. You will need very long runners in order to use it for lowering and/or toproping without debilitating rope drag.
