Description 

This is the easiest line up the north face of the Monster Block but it probably has the scariest top-out. It climbs more or less dead center up the wall, and can be recognized by a deep mono pocket at 2/3 height.

Start on the good jug rails and work up into the faintest little corner, level with the mono. Make a committing crank to good slots below the lip, then mantle over in the most controlled fashion possible (I prefer a modified "beached whale").


Protection 

Two or more crashpads and competent spotters.
