Access Issue: Access issue - Monastery, Cedar Park, Combat Rock, etc. - open since 2023
Details
Update: per Bruce Hildenbrand: the area has been open since 2023.
Per JF M: as of May 2022, there is no signage on-site, nor information on the USFS webpage for the Cameron Peak Fire (nor on their published map of closures) that indicates the area is closed.
Per Bruce Hildenbrand: it appears that the Forest Service has closed access to all the climbing areas accessed via Storm Mountain Road (Monastery, Cedar Park, Combat Rock, etc.) until they can clear all the dangerous dead trees from the Cameron Peak fire.
I worked this issue with Eric Murdock at the AF, and it looks like the Forest Service picked Devil's Gulch Road as the southern boundary even though all the climbing areas on MP.com were not burned.

Description
4th class start to a Blocky slab/face. Crux is two thirds of the way up, the rest of the climbing is 5.4-5.6ish. It is a long hike up for just this route, but there is some old Jim Disney stuff on the upper ridge 50 yards to the right.
Location
Park at the dirt pullout 1.2 miles west of the Beige Siphon Tube. Hike and 4th class up the gully on the north side of the road just west of the bridge to the west of Practice Rock/US 34 bypass/Safety in Numbers. It is a trudge and grunt to get up there. You can rap of some trees on the way down. The climb is just short of the top of the ridge below a small saddle.
