Access Issue: Rule changes for pets and trail closures 30 minutes after sunset
Details
Rule Changes Concerning Pets at Enchanted Rock State Natural Area to Take Effect March 1.
Beginning March 1, new rules will take effect at Enchanted Rock State Natural Area designed to balance the need to better protect sensitive natural habitats atop the rock, including the vernal pools, and still allow visitors to continue to enjoy central Texas’ most popular destination with their pets.
Starting Tuesday, pets will only be allowed in specified camping areas, day-use areas and the Loop Trail. Pets will no longer be allowed to accompany hikers on the Summit Trail that ascends to the top of Enchanted Rock.
Most trails, including the Summit Trail, are closed 30 minutes after sunset, allowing park visitors to view the sunset and safely descend to the parking lot. The Loop Trail is the only trail open after sunset to gain access to the primitive camping areas.

Description
This routes looks easy from the ground. It is not. What appears to be a featured and not-so-steep undertaking is actually a series of hard mantles followed by a technical and footwork intensive crux. The movement is excellent and varied, as is the the position. Very well bolted.

Well bolted hard routes are somewhat rare among the many slabs and faces at erock. Kingdom of Zilch, however, offers a good handful. This is a great one. I can't speak to the grade (I'm no good at that), but I did not think it was easy. Clip your toenails & watch out for the tree around the upper bolts. No gear required on this route. Mar 20, 2016
