Access Issue: Not specifically approved for climbing by NJ Parks, or perhaps outside State Park land.
Details
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
Lots of thoughtful moves.
High quality expecially if can do both the main route and the variation off the same top-rope.
Likely much harder if much less tall than 5ft 6inch with normal reach.
Start on the ground below left-trending ramp, 8-10 ft left of 2.5-inch thick tree.
Up onto ramp (a bit tricky), then go diagonally left across + up to reach the main face at the base of a non-sharp arete. Straight up it to finish just left of the left-hand of two non-thick tree on the same high ledge.
. . . (Easier start onto ridge from ramp above left from it).
Variation (Left Ramp Face, similar quality + difficulty but more homogeneous): Instead of diagonal up left on the ramp, go across ramp to get onto the main face about 4 ft left of little vertical gully. Roughly straight up to the top, passing between two non-thick trees on the same high ledge. Finish up mini-arete.
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).
