Access Issue: RAIN, WET ROCK CLOSURES; The sandstone around Castle Rock is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet.
Details
WET ROCK: Holds rip off and climbs have been and will continue to be permanently damaged (like Donkey Dong and countless others) due to climbers not respecting this phenomenon. After a heavy storm the rock will remain wet, sometimes for several days. PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB AT CASTLE ROCK during or after rain.
Access Issue: Trails are closed from sunset to 6:00 am.
Details
Trails close at sunset. Give yourself enough time to be back at your vehicle (or campsite if you're staying at one) before dark, or the rangers will fine you.
Always visit the Castle Rock State Park website parks.ca.gov/?page_id=538 for fairly current official information.

Description
High quality and rarely climbed. I started left hand low around the corner on the arete in a pocket and right hand crimp. Hard slapping and squeezing gets you up the blunt arete. Great classic Castle Rock slopers and squeezing.
A lower start seems possible, but at least a few grades harder. The old book gives this a V4, but felt at least V5+ even by Castle Rock standards.
