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.

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.

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.
