These roads are closed because people were using them to access USFS lands, according to the post. They will affect Yankee Hill access. I wonder if they've closed the ATV parking area? I've also seen the Clear Creek County Sheriff threatening to ticket people at hiking trailheads, but according to the state wide order hiking is OK and Jeffco parks page says it's OK in healthy groups of 4 or less with social distancing. I wish there was some continuity in the messaging.

Tolland, Apex Valley, and Columbine Camp Ground Roads provide local residents of Gilpin County necessary access to their homes and neighborhoods and additional access to United States Forest Service public lands for recreation and other purposes. Gilpin County has been experiencing large numbers of non-resident visitors traveling to, parking on, and gathering at, on and around these Roads for the apparent purpose of accessing United States Forest Service lands."
