The Monolith

On the east side are two crack systems through the large overhang. This climb goes up the right system that is a little less steep. Began in the very steep gully with a 5.7-8 boulder committing boulder start to the large ledge central belay ledge on the left. From here aid was used by pitons and stoppers to get through overhang (A-2). After this 5.9 to tree. Then the route went sharply left at tree to a long dirty V groove ramp 5.5 to the top. At the time the ramp was scrubbed by Tom and Jay before I led the route. The route was retro bolted by Chris Buckley with eye bolts and at the tree goes directly up on clean rock with hanger bolts (5.6). This is the good way up. The original climb was half good and half bomb

Trad rack but no longer needed. To do it trad nothing bigger than a #2 camelot is needed.
