Apesville

FA Jim Yoder & Peter Austin 1980

Description

Apesville starts by climbing a crack (5.11) through the body length roof/overhang just left of Monkey Lip. Above the roof the difficulties ease and it crosses to the right of Monkey Lip’s second roof and then moves straight up through scruffy rock. The crux section is a bit intimidating and is the full overhang experience with good gear. If there was a fixed anchor above the crux section, this route and Monkey Lip would be quite popular. Without an anchor, a better finish is to escape via Clem’ Layback off to the left.

Location

Start just left of Monkey Lip.
