Access Issue: 2019 Santa Fe National Forest Temporary Closure Order
Details
The Santa Fe National Forest has issued a temporary closure order for East Fork Trail 137 (bit.ly/30MHGOz) that affects the west end of the "Las Conchas Trail" (Trail 137). The order is in effect until the end of 2019. From the verbiage in the order, it does not sound like this closure affects any of the documented Las Conchas climbing areas. It does affect access to the seldom-visited "Lower East Fork" in the "box" area of the river. Here's an unofficial map I created based on my interpretation of the closure order: caltopo.com/m/D00M

Description
The sustained, slightly overhanging nature of this shortie route will keep you wide awake.
Sustained moves on generally good holds on steep rock keep you pumped as you aim for not-quite-as-good-as-they-look scoops and dishes on the steep face to a neat little tufa-like pinch. Finish on lower-angle, licheny rock past one more bolt to the anchors.
Short and full value. Likely 11+ or so for taller climbers. A bit more difficult for shorties.
