For 2022: per Daniel Bryant: they did extend the order, but what I found was that the closed area does not encompass any of the common climbing areas within Elevenmile Canyon.
This is a new project in between Ground Bound Hounds and Whiskey Sunrise. A very difficult beginning leads to sustained climbing above. Expect this to be in the hard 12+ to easy 13- range when completed.
Update: FA 2018 C.Kane "Whiskey Demise". If you love technical, strenuous and sequential climbing on small sharp crimps and imaginary foot holds this is a 3 star route!
[Hide Comment] Just sent the open project. If you love technical, strenuous, and sequential climbing on small, sharp crimps and imaginary foot holds, this is a 3 star route! The crux is right off the deck with thoughtful climbing to the end. In keeping with its partner route to the right and with homage to the bolter - the name is "Whiskey Demise," 13a

[Hide Comment] Great line. Takes solid gear after bolt four. I used a 0.4 followed by a #2 cam in lieu of the last 3 bolts. A blue Metolius or #8 nut could also be used for additional security.
