Access Issue: RAIN, WET ROCK CLOSURES; The sandstone around Castle Rock is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet.
Details
WET ROCK: Holds rip off and climbs have been and will continue to be permanently damaged (like Donkey Dong and countless others) due to climbers not respecting this phenomenon. After a heavy storm the rock will remain wet, sometimes for several days. PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB AT CASTLE ROCK during or after rain.
Access Issue: Trails are closed from sunset to 6:00 am.
Details
Trails close at sunset. Give yourself enough time to be back at your vehicle (or campsite if you're staying at one) before dark, or the rangers will fine you.
Always visit the Castle Rock State Park website parks.ca.gov/?page_id=538 for fairly current official information.

Description
This problem is on the magoo closest to the access road it is on the left hand side while facing the rock from the road. It is route 1 on my pretty little picture.
Starting in the small cave go for the pocket to your left. Getting your feet high and work your right hand up the arete until you hit the sweet spot (you will know it when you hit it) and top out. If you want to make it a little easier you can use something other than the arete to your left but it seriously simplifies the problem
