Access Issue: Paradise, Library, and Hawk Rock closed to climbing
Details
During the recent public OHV study meetings linked below, The Earth Conservancy has made it clear that they do not allow rock climbing on their land. The Library, Paradise, and Hawk Rock all fall within Earth Conservancy Land, and are therefore closed to climbing. The Eastern Pennsylvania Alliance of climbers is currently working with the Access Fund, Earth Conservancy, and DCNR to reopen these areas to climbing. Please be respectful of this closure and utilize the other crags around Mocanaqua to avoid further jeopardizing our future access of these beloved crags.

Description
Some balancing skill takes you to the third bolt crux, can be done statically but a tricky dyno gets the job done. The climbing eases after the crux but is still sustained. Coerce your partner to lead it first to brush off the spider webs.
"The route Thunder Stud that was put up by Albert Pisaneschi who led it and bolted it. He is not on social media and asked me to have someone change this on the web. I have his phone number if you need to speak to him to verify this. He has quietly put up many routes without writing guides and other people have taken the credit." - nancy savickas

The next route to the right of Stairway to Heaven. Follows a flake after the first clip until the crux.
Protection
Bolts.
"There is an anchor (as of April 2018) however it is on the top of the cliff nearly a foot from the lip. Make a nice long anchor to drape over the edge or top out and walk off because whomever bolted this anchor did not want you going home with a sheath still on your rope." - Nick Best
