(1) The BLM has amended the Cassia Resource Management Plan (RMP) to permanently close the 400 acres of land it manages in the Castle Rocks Interagency Recreation Area to staging, traditional rock climbing, sport climbing and bouldering, as well as overnight camping and development of new trails.
The adjacent Castle Rocks State Park and the National Forest Service land to the north remains OPEN TO CLIMBING,
as does the nearby City of Rocks National Reserve.
(2) HIGHLINING IS PROHIBITED
By the authority of the park manager, Highlining at City of Rocks National Reserve and Castle Rocks State Park is temporarily prohibited as of August 28, 2019.
The park(s) is reviewing highlining activities. Here are Google Drive links to the closure and the updated Code of Regulations for CIRO. drive.google.com/open?id=1y… and drive.google.com/open?id=1Y…
Arrest and/or hefty fines are likely if caught rock climbing with ropes and gear in the BLM land.
Please respect this closure to ensure access to the open climbing at Castle Rocks is not threatened.

The "Final Supplementary Rules for the Castle Rocks Land Use Plan Amendment Area, Idaho" is located in the Federal Registry. This document gives the details on the closure but doesn't provide a map. You can check it out here: federalregister.gov/documen…

Description
This is an amusing little diversion, and, quite unique. Climb up to the right of Pooh's Honey (first couple of bolts can be used for pro, slinging long will help with rope drag). Stem around/over to easily avoid the low angle moss runnel. Climb up to the small tree, sling it long for pro if desired, then up to the horizontal roof crack. Get yer guns loaded, start pluggin' cams for gear and jamming whilst moving to the left. Aim for the hole and wonder if you can a) get into it and b) get through it.
Pooh says, "Then would you read a Sustaining Book, such as would help and comfort a Wedged Bear in Great Tightness?"
"For some minutes he lay there miserably, but when the five hundred and eight-seventh Heffalump was licking its jaws, and saying to itself "Very good honey this, I don't know when I've tasted better," Pooh could bear it no longer."
Fun stuff.
Pooh likes his honey.
