Seasonal raptor closure at Monument Area MORE INFO >>> Rock climbing is not allowed 1/4 mile either side of the Monument due to a nesting pair of Golden Eagles. The birds are using Staender Ridge as a perch therefore it is also within the closure area. The trail which is on the backside of the Monument is open to through traffic, but hiking is not allowed around the cliff faces. Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

Thin, tricky moves on small edges and rounded scallops lead to a crux about half way up. The crux is a little before the lip where the climbing turns 5.5 for the remainder of the route. If you follow the wrong chalked holds you may find yourself in a hard to backtrack dead-end like many others before you.

Location 

Left side of Morning Glory Wall, just left of the left-arching line, Zebra Seam.

Protection 

4 bolts and rap anchors. These Top Anchors are shared with the routes, Gumby, Zebra Seam and the first pitch of Zebra or Zebra/Zion.
