This area has not been specifically approved for climbing by NJ Parks, and perhaps is completely of partly outside the Park, instead on State-owned land managed by the NJ Dept of Environmental Protection. Also there might be a concern of climbers parking disruptively outside the Route 206 Cranberry Lake commuter parking lot on busy days.
We heard a report that an official survey was performed for a point near this cliff sector, and at least this cliff is very close to the boundary -- like perhaps the top might be inside the Park and the bottom (or middle) might be outside. We do not yet know of any general rule of the DEP forbidding climbing, and as of 2018 this area is not posted for any special status or restrictions. There is no general NJ Parks rule forbidding climbing (after submitting a signed waiver of liability form for the current year).

Description
Mainly a way to get to the top platform up around the right end. Mostly vegetated careful hiking, then some slab rock moves near the top.
Start at bottom of obvious left-trending ramp about 50-70 ft left from the left side of the central pillar.
Up the ramp mostly along its right side. Finish to the rock platform at top of this cliff.
warning: The rock on and near this route has not been climbed much yet, and some of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber or someone setting up top anchor.
. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2018. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).

Protection
For ideas how to set up anchor for Top-Roping, see the description page for this sector.
Likely need some directional protection in case climber falls, to prevent a big swing to the left.
Protection for trad Leading is unknown and likely inadequate.
