Update: per Bruce Hildenbrand: the area has been open since 2023.
Per JF M: as of May 2022, there is no signage on-site, nor information on the USFS webpage for the Cameron Peak Fire (nor on their published map of closures) that indicates the area is closed.
Per Bruce Hildenbrand: it appears that the Forest Service has closed access to all the climbing areas accessed via Storm Mountain Road (Monastery, Cedar Park, Combat Rock, etc.) until they can clear all the dangerous dead trees from the Cameron Peak fire.
I worked this issue with Eric Murdock at the AF, and it looks like the Forest Service picked Devil's Gulch Road as the southern boundary even though all the climbing areas on MP.com were not burned.

Description
Numbskulls has quality, sustained, granite slab climbing similar to its neighbor Deathly Hollow but sharper and at a slightly easier grade.
Scramble up to a small juniper and start the sustained smedging and edging with slopers and crimps all the way to the anchor. This can be easily TR'd by climbing Channel Surfing to the shared anchor.
