Per Steven Armijo: Cheyenne Canyon Road is closed until May 2022 for bridge repairs. Only hiking and biking trail access is allowed into the canyon.
Per Stewart M. Green: the North Cheyenne Canyon was reopened after the floods of 2015.
Per Stewart M. Green: ATTENTION!! The Colorado Springs Parks Department has CLOSED ALL CITY PARKS, including Garden of the Gods, Red Rock Canyon Open Space, and North Cheyenne Canon, to rock climbing for the upcoming Memorial Day weekend.
This is due to record rainfall totals in western Colorado Springs which as caused severe trail and parking lot damage, saturated the sandstone cliffs, and is causing parts of cliffs to break off.
The parks will be re-evaluated on Monday to determine how the closure will last.
Please respect the closures and take care of our precious climbing areas!

Description
This is an excellent route, climbing the dihedral next to The Disclaimer. It is surprising that this line has just recently been bolted given how long this area has been established for, but thankfully someone saw the glory that could be had and put glue-ins the whole way up.
The begining and end of this climb are classic style of the amphitheater, though the dihedral is anything but! 2 crux moves of smearing in the dihedral back to back with good rest before, after, and in the middle of them.
NOTE: a 70 meter rope will get you to the ground, if you only have a 60m, then bail after the dihedral to the anchors of The Disclaimer.
If you know the first ascentionist/bolter, please comment below.
