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
Some thoughtful moves.
directions: Start below a pair of 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. This start is on the ground at the foot of another left-trending ramp / slope.
Up the face just left of the pair of corners to a wide ledge.
Next up onto top of a 3-ft-high block at the top of left-trending ramp - (Along the right side of this block is a right-facing corner with crack in it). Finish up the short face staying left of the crack.
. . . Variation: Instead traverse horizontally around right side just below the block onto top of wide left-trending ramp. Up the corner with obvious crack to its top - (more strenuous and technical).
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).
