Location: CA : Central Coast : Pinnacles National Monument : East Side : Monolith : Subterranean Tango (5.10a R) By: Kyle Queener When: Feb 1, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: A nice easy way to do the bottom section is to clip the first two bolts and then lower into the pit and top rope the bottom section and then lead the rest. A good option for the belayer in winter months.

Location: CA : Central Coast : Pinnacles National Monument : East Side : Monolith : Rocket in my pocket (5.10d) By: Kyle Queener When: Feb 1, 2013 | view comment >> |
Comments: I don't agree with the statement that this is the best .10d in the park. It's good, but probably not the best.

Location: CA : Central Coast : Pinnacles National Monument : West Side : The Balconies : Lava Falls (5.9 R) By: Kyle Queener When: Jan 30, 2009 | view comment >> |
Comments: Re-bolted in January 2009. Expect "bomber" bolts.

Location: CA : Central Coast : Pinnacles National Monument : West Side : Machete Ridge Area : Cuidado! (5.10c) By: Kyle Queener When: Jan 30, 2009 | view comment >> |
Comments: Also Cuidado can mean "Watch out" or a "Head's up" kind of meaning. Very fitting for the holds you'll be pulling out on the way up. This route is open, but try to climb it on weekdays while no one is in the caves.

Location: CA : Central Coast : Pinnacles National Monument : East Side : Monolith : Cantaloupe Death Direct (5.12a PG13) By: Kyle Queener When: Jan 30, 2009 | view comment >> |
Comments: This is an okay route. I would recommend Hot Lava Lucy before this. A good route if your breaking into 5.12 climbing, since its basically a top rope.
