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
0.6 miles west of the Beige Siphon Tube, there is a paved pullout on the south side of the road next to a big block of rock called the Borg. Look up and east. Three obvious slabs exist. This route is on the upper left slab. Climb up slab 1 and slab two to the base or follow some loose gullies from the road north of the slabs to the top. Rap off the anchors to the base. Climb up a arete/dihedral and gain the face on the left edge. Very exposed. Keep the the arete past two bolt to the two bolt anchor.
