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
Starts just left of the large ledge beneath Wild Kingdom.
Scramble left on easy ground to a vertical crack. Up the vertical crack to a bulge where a bolt protects some tricky moves leading to a narrow ledge out left. There is a fixed dowel here which will get you safely to the bouldery crux section which has three distinct difficult sequences protected by a couple of bolts. A fall at the last bit can result in a 20'+ fall into clean Stokes County air.
After the crux there is an old rusty angle piton which can be backed up by good, clean gear. Get stood up at base of the white face, get some techy gear and traverse straight left to the ledge atop the Edge of Fire. Anchor here. Top out and descent per Edge of Fire.
