Mount Blue Sky, a favorite location for Mountain Goats and Bighorn Sheep, will be closed starting September 3, 2024 through 2025. There are still some timed permits left for this year, but they won't last long.
From Recreation.gov:

Location
Alerts
Starting Sept. 3, 2024, through all of 2025, Mount Blue Sky Highway will be closed to motorized and non-motorized travel (foot, bike, etc.) for road construction near Summit Lake. A public closure area will span from the CDOT gate on Colo. Highway 5 through the project area, above Summit Lake.

It wasn't "politically correct".
