Access Issue: Access issue - Monastery, Cedar Park, Combat Rock, etc. - open since 2023
Details
Update: per Bruce Hildenbrand: the area has been open since 2023. 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
This ascends a fun handcrack followed by easy face.
P1. 5.9-. Chimney up to the base of the dihedral, climb the hand crack, then head up on nice face to anchors shared with surrounding routes.
Be sure to rap and pull ropes to the LEFT of the tunnel to prevent a stuck rope.
It's also possible to continue up right to the upper half of
The Outer Edge, and rap from those anchors.
Location
This ascends the right-facing dihedral with a hand crack just past the Totum Tower tunnel.
Protection
A standard rack with extra #2 and #3 Camalots.
