Access Issue: Post Hurricane Helene Accessibility of Crags
Details
The CCC has created the list linked below of accessible and inaccessible climbing areas with some caveats. If you decide to head out for a day of climbing, please do not attempt to go to those marked ‘inaccessible’. Please note that all areas in WNC will have extensive tree damage and if you head out, use extra caution for all the trees above, especially on a windy day. Rock fall potential is also highest after a big weather event. Please use extra caution while climbing and prepare to self rescue if injured. Injury response time will be greatly limited for any injury currently, especially for a remote injury. Cell service is limited in all areas. Parking at accessible crags in the WNC/ Upstate SC region will likely be challenging. If the parking lot is full, go to a different area and do not park illegally or in a road. Make a plan B before leaving your house. Expect road detours on the way to the crag. NCdrive.gov updates road closures. Once you get to the crag, expect many trees blocking access trails and of course, come volunteer with the CCC to help us bring our climbing areas back!

Description
Use the start for Ben's Done Been (Bat Flake) and climb up to the third bolt. At the third bolt, transition left to the third bolt of Bob Right and head for the rings. Most people are taking the path of least resistance but when originally climbed, the line was meant to go over the roof, directly over the drill hole. In fact, the drill hole was used for a hold where it enters the roof on its upper side. The hold can be difficult to locate but it is there. Unless you like awkward moves, don't bother climbing it in this manner. The grade reflects the easier path.
