Access Issue: Rule changes for pets and trail closures 30 minutes after sunset
Details
Beginning March 1, new rules will take effect at Enchanted Rock State Natural Area designed to balance the need to better protect sensitive natural habitats atop the rock, including the vernal pools, and still allow visitors to continue to enjoy central Texas’ most popular destination with their pets.
Starting Tuesday, pets will only be allowed in specified camping areas, day-use areas and the Loop Trail. Pets will no longer be allowed to accompany hikers on the Summit Trail that ascends to the top of Enchanted Rock.
Most trails, including the Summit Trail, are closed 30 minutes after sunset, allowing park visitors to view the sunset and safely descend to the parking lot. The Loop Trail is the only trail open after sunset to gain access to the primitive camping areas.

Description
An overhanging offwidth corner crack starting at butterfly stacks and opening past chicken wings. Starts by stepping up off of the deck on the block low on the ground on a stack. Be careful at the beginning, as there's a detached flake behind you that you swing into if you blow the opening moves (not bad, but wear a helmet just in case). Continue up the crack on tenuous stacks past a sloper ledge into and past a squeeze to gain a top out via a horizontal finger crack for a single move. The anchor is finicky but safe, built off of the busted up kitty litter and boulders directly above the line. You can hike off this line when you clean the anchor. If you know where the uphill entrance is to this cave, it's a 30 second walk off; if not, you can hike back around to the main cave entrance.
GEAR SPOILERS BELOW
The climb: 4, 4, 5, 5, 6
The anchor (weird): .3, .4, 3, 4, 2
Location
This route is the overhanging offwidth crack on the righthand side of the cave (when walking in from the SE Buzzard's Roost wall) containing Joy Crack and Tunnel Vision. This is not in the same "room" as those two climbs; it is in the first passage as you enter the tunnel. It's the most obvious crack in the cave.
