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
Work up the right side of the cave with long pulls on jugs, there is a slopy crack feature near where the route goes horizontal. Venture out and left across the roof on pods with holds in them or pinches. When the good holds end the first crux hits moving around a weird block with bad feet finishing with a throw to jugs in an alcove above the feature. Cop a painful knee bar rest. Once ready, move left into the tough pocket section of Dope and up through the jugs. Finish here for "??" 5.13-, or continue out left through the V6 boulder problem to the top.
