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.

Access Issue: CLOSED - Private Property
Details
This property lies on private property owned by Sylvan Dale Ranch.
It is confirmed by looking at Larimer County Land Information Locator ( maps.larimer.org/lil/?xCent…)
Sylvan Dale Ranch confirmed that they do not want people climbing on their land for liability reasons and safety reasons - they have a horse trail above the cliffs on both sides of the canyon and expressed the worry of a climber topping out and spooking one of their horses while guests of the ranch are on a horse ride.
These climbs lie on private property, and are not open to the public. Please do not climb here.

Description
30 yards left of the The White Dike, take the slab 15 feet, and go up to the steel rod and girth hitch a sling doubled with another sling to avoid hitting it on a fall. (Be careful on the next move! There's a bomber #0.5 Camalot up 10 feet to the left, but a fall from here could be bad!) Now just follow the crack to the belay. This has super good pro with some sketchy spots. Follow the last big flake up to a creative belay. There is a nice rap off the back! 9-11-09.
Eds. Please do not climb here. This is on private property. The landowner has confirmed that they do not want anyone climbing here.
