Access Issue: Access issue - Monastery, Cedar Park, Combat Rock, etc. - open since 2023
Details
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
This route climbs the dihedral left of Bring Your Brass to the headwall behind the tree left of the Enigma anchors. Be careful that your rope doesn't jam in the bulge high in the dihedral. At the tree, you can cut right to the Enigma anchors making the route 5.5 or continue up the headwall.
P1. 5.9. Climb the easy dihedral to the large tree. Ascend the headwall cracks behind the tree then up past the last two bolts on P2 of Autumn Gold to anchors in the alcove.
Descent: do two rappels. ***A 60 METER ROPE IS REQUIRED.***
