Access Issue: Access issue - Monastery, Cedar Park, Combat Rock, etc. - open since 2023
Details
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
This is a looong, quality face climb, one of the best of its grade in the Big T.
Climb up the blocky start to the dihedral, and clip a high bolt. Follow bolts up the face, across a water groove, and up the upper face to a two bolt anchor.
A 70m rope will just get you down or at least to where you can downclimb the blocky start IF you unclip all the draws. If you leave the draws clipped, it will not get you down. A safer bet (and if you have a 60 the only option for lowering) is to lower to the But It’s Low Angle anchors and from there to the ground. You can also climb to a tree above the anchors and walk off to the right. Be sure to knot the ends of your rope when lowering or rappelling. Wear a helmet when you pull the rope or move to the left as the rope tends to dislodge debris in the dihedral.
