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
Tricky boulder problem in lower half. Climbing above much easier.
. . . (? too bad the landing isn't better ?).
Difficulty? Not sure of difficulty, because no one has yet put all the moves together.
directions: Start below two 1-ft deep right-facing inside corners with are below upper section of wide left-trending ramp with 2.5-ft wide ledge below it.
Straight up onto the ledge into the left of the two corners, then up the right of the corners onto the ramp.
Next diagonal up right across ramp to reach obvious inside corner with crack at the top of the ramp. The left side of the corner is a 3-ft high block. The right side is a 15-ft-high face with a "shield" almost at its bottom with an indentation below it. Up the right-side face to its top -- using the crack which forms the left edge of the "shield" and stepping on top of the block, but not using the crack above left which runs along life side of small overhanging down-pointing wedge rock.
. . (? Project: climb the face to the right of the corner crack somehow without standing on top of the block on left side of the corner ? and perhaps without using the crack which forms the left side of the "shield" ?)
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).
