Access Issue: Partial closure, spring and summer 2019
Details
CRAGS shares this info: Beginning March 15th, 2019 the upper section of the Cave Valley Climbing Area will be closed to entry until approximately mid-summer due to sensitive species in the area.
For closure info --- > Auburn State Recreation Posted Closureparks.ca.gov/?page_id=502
The closure area includes technical climbing routes known as Wreckage Wall, Twin Towers and other unnamed routes in the upper canyon. Technical climbing remains open in the lower end of the valley including Memorial Wall, Surf Tower, The Patio, Scale Wall and Horseshoe Canyon.
During this closure drone use is prohibited within 1/2 mile of the Cave Valley area.

Access Issue: The State Rec Area closes at dusk - most parking areas are self-paid
Details
Most of Auburn SRA is open from 7 am to sunset. Leave early enough to be off the trails before dusk. Most parking requires self registration fees in cash envelopes (or annual state park passes), and is enthusiastically enforced. Check the Auburn State Recreation Area website at parks.ca.gov/?page_id=502 for current information. Note that the park's policy is that technical roped climbing is only permitted in the Cave Valley/Quarry area - outside the fenced private quarry at the back. Unroped climbing - aka bouldering or DWS - is allowed everywhere with a safe landing.
Description
Climb the bolted route on the extreme right of the Scale wall.
Climbing is simple and well protected, though there is still tons of loose rock on this route. You will feel like you're going to trigger a landslide!
Crux is in the slightly overhung section at the top, though the holds are still quite good.
