Access Issue: (1) Weather Wall, Yellow Wall, & all the crags north of Twin Sisters are CLOSED. (2) No trash cans. (3) Highlining temporary ban in place for CIRO and CRSP
Details
(1) The area, crags, and routes just north of the Twin Sisters are on private land and the landowner recently posted no trespassing notices at the gated road/trail to the area. Any access of these areas and routes is trespassing. The area was closed by the landowner due to trespassing, illegal camping, fires & trash, and disregard of owner's privacy.
Please be respectful of the land owner's wishes and do not climb or hike here until further notice. This includes White Lightning, Skinner Roof, Weather Wall, Yellow Wall, Larry's Annihilation, Needle Rock, Mississippi Fred's, and Secret Tom's. Park officials and CRAG are working to regain access to this valuable climbing resource. Be patient and check back for updates.
(2) No trash cans anywhere in City of Rocks: urlzs.com/c4eZH

Description
Fun route with a variety of jams, stems and chimney techniques required. The first part of the route is sort of a half pipe. Then its fingers and hands. After about 70 feet it merges with the wide 8 that is to its left , but it is a straight up line. Its a bit dirty but still worthwhile.
I highly doubt this was an FA although it did not appear to have ever been cleaned up. If anyone knows the correct name and FA's please update.

Location
About 80 feet right of Hesitation Blues, 20 feet right of the wide 8. It is not in the current guide book but it shares the finish with the wide 8 that is in the current book.
Rap: scramble north west to chains and rap about 30 feet. Then, scramble north to slings and tat. Rap 30 feet to the ground.
