(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. Here is a link to a map that shows the BLM land in yellow. parksandrecreation.idaho.go…
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.

Description
This is the natural line just to the left of Olympus Wrecks. Start about 20 ft to the left in a very thin tips/finger crack. The meat of this climb is fairly short but hard right from the start. Take a right leaning very thin tips crack up and into the crux of Olympus. The two routes meet for 10 feet, using the highest bolt of Olympus when gear disappears. Once you have reached the good stance take the left crack/corner to the roof and out left to the anchors of Ad-vance to Idaho.
