Access Issue: Post Hurricane Helene Accessibility of Crags
Details
The CCC has created the list linked below of accessible and inaccessible climbing areas with some caveats. If you decide to head out for a day of climbing, please do not attempt to go to those marked ‘inaccessible’. Please note that all areas in WNC will have extensive tree damage and if you head out, use extra caution for all the trees above, especially on a windy day. Rock fall potential is also highest after a big weather event. Please use extra caution while climbing and prepare to self rescue if injured. Injury response time will be greatly limited for any injury currently, especially for a remote injury. Cell service is limited in all areas. Parking at accessible crags in the WNC/ Upstate SC region will likely be challenging. If the parking lot is full, go to a different area and do not park illegally or in a road. Make a plan B before leaving your house. Expect road detours on the way to the crag. NCdrive.gov updates road closures. Once you get to the crag, expect many trees blocking access trails and of course, come volunteer with the CCC to help us bring our climbing areas back!

Description
Overall fun movement, but scary AF.
1st Pitch: 5.10a moves through the first two bolts then move left to better rock and brace for a runout section that gets progressively easier but has ground fall potential as you approach the third bolt at 60ish feet. Be solid on 5.10 slab and choose your feet wisely, watch out for loose flakes. 150ft 3 bolts. No gear. Single bolt belay under headwall.
Pitch 2: 5.11 4 bolts with potential for gear through headwall with streaked rock directly above belay.
