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
P1: Start at the dirty corner around the right side of the crag before going up the hillside. Climb a casual forty feet up the corner before laying back on the visible prow which is the crux (5.6) of the first pitch. Belay from the ledge above.
P2: Traverse left from the ledge and begin climbing at the right leaning hand crack that continues 150 feet up. Pull a 5.9 crux twenty or so feet up, continue up through a casual crack with jugs and chicken beaks into a moderate off-width. Finish on a ledge below an extremely flakey off-width to the top and walk off, or traverse left along a finger crack to bolts (5.10).
