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
From the top, one can top rope several lines that vary in difficulty from 5.8 to 5.11. The line directly under the anchors goes as 10a or so, a little harder left of this going thru the bulge. There is a lot of lichen that will go away with some climbing. This has Monastery-type crystals and funky slanty holds. There were two anchor bolts here with the hangers missing. It was obviously climbed before. I almost just put two new hangers on the old bolts, but instead I decided to drill new ones. I'm glad I did. When I went to hammer off the old bolt ends, they broke in about 5 swings of the ole Black Diamond hammer. There are other missing hangers on bolts in the area, so beware if you plan to add hangers to them.
Location
This is about 1/3 to 1/2 way up the east side down hill from Chicken Head Hop and Climbing for Dummies.
