The Middle Path

Description

This amazing route has some of the best rock and coolest moves in all of Miller Fork. Start on good holds and head through a couple bolts of jugs before coming to the obvious blank section with a two-finger pocket in the middle. Previously everyone was using the two-finger pocket and the mono next to it to launch up to the jug above. Now there are a couple of right hand sidepulls that take some of the sting out of this move. If you're of average height, this move can be done relatively statically. You might still be jumping if you're short!

Rest up before the main crux which is a deadpoint to a crimp edge off of a left hand sidepull. Don't relax once you hit the crimp because you still need to get to the anchors which entails a couple more tough moves.

Location

In the middle of the 5.12 wall on the right side of Monastery. This route is right of "Repent for Your Sends" and left of "The Suffering." It can be identified by the two-finger pocket in the middle of a blank section in the middle of the route.

Protection

5 bolts to anchor
