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
Scramble up the ravine until it gets too steep. Belay from a small, flat place. Climb the dihedral crack with good to marginal protection. Halfway up, a horn on the left can be slung and extended. Continue vertically up the dihedral crack after the small, slabby ledge which houses the horn. Top out, and use the tree directly in front of you as an anchor.
Rappel from the tree to the ground. The rope can be pulled with minimal rope drag.
