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
An obscure line that does not jump out at you as an obvious line but it climbs so well. From the right side of the wall beneath Electric Dreams, walk left across the low ledge until you pass the large tree. From here have someone throw the rope end up to the climber and tie in there so as to avoid starting out with your rope on the wrong side of the tree.
On the far left side of the ledge, climb up the dark lay back crack and start traversing right at the second bolt. Power over the strenuous roof crack seam and climb straight up the center of the wall, continuing to stay a little more right than expected, to gain a large ledge beneath the roof at the top. Get some small gear in the vertical crack overhead and enjoy a high quality finish up the left side of the prow that caps the wall.
