Access Issue: Closed to the Public for Sensitive Archaeological Resources
Details
The Forest Service issued a temporary closure of Jemez Cave (a.k.a. Crystal Cave) to all public access in order to perform an archaeological survey. For all intents and purposes, this temporary closure order should be considered a *permanent* closure order.
Impacts to the cave's nationally significant archaeological resources are the major concern.

Description
This is the first 4 bolts of the Leper, and makes a good warm up for the harder routes in the cave.
Start up a steep wall with long moves between mostly good holds with a couple of underclings. The crux comes near the transition to the roof, holding, clipping from and moving off of a right angling crack feature. Move off of the crack into an undercling and out the roof through some pods with holds in them.
