What do you mean "conditions"? We only have 1: Mild. It was 74 degrees and breezy today.
Chimney Rock will never be open to public access in the forseeable future. NC State Parks allowed a "good ol' boy" group to form an LLC to manage a park bought with MY tax dollars, and said management only allows Fox Mountain Guides (may they rot) to take climbers there. Go to Laurel Knob instead.
The bald is open, but don't cause a stir when there, pack out your litter, and generally don't be a dick.

Maybe, but if you're going to do that, just go to the New. Sandstone don't get much better. But then, the trad there is mostly middling with occasional bits of exceptional.
