Access Issue: Portions of Mt. Elden are closed (July 16th) for forest thinning
Details
Forest thinning will begin on Monday July 16th. They are going to start in unit 1 which is the eastern most unit, essentially above the Shadow Mountain and Swiss Manor neighborhoods. This closure is in effect until the unit 1 project is complete and they move west which will impact other crags.
Climbing areas impacted are: Gloria’s and the Skyline Boulders. The standard access to the Dragon Eggs, Red Dragon, and Solitude Canyon are closed, though these crags are still open if you find appropriate alternative access from Bufffalo Park for Solitude, or from the top of Mt. Elden for the Red Dragon.

Description
This route is the first crack system left of the Right Deception. Climb an easy slab to the crux. Face climbing, body English, and levitation get you to a small pod. From this point it is mostly hands and fingers to the top.
The crux is awkward and difficult to protect. Most folks TR this route.
Descent - Rappel from two bolts atop the Right Deception Crack or scramble down to the right of PMC.

A #2 camalot down low in a slot just to keep me from falling all the way back to the parking lot if I blew the crux gear. An Orange (#3) Metolius TCU and a Gold DMM (1.5 WC Friend Size) cam. Then, have a #2 or #1 camalot ready. Once you stand up in the pod it is possible to place a good cam and once again become safe from taking a fall onto the approach slab. Aug 31, 2007
