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 

This Route is in the shade pretty much all day. Start my making the crux moves off small crimps to the first bolt. Cheater stones are usually stacked to make the reach to the starting holds a bit easier. After reaching the starting holds, make a few hard moves to get to the first bolt. After you reach the first bolt, the climbing turns much easier.

Location 

Right of the Cling on Dihedral.

Protection 

Bolts, Chain Anchor, Stick Clip if you want to be protected through the crux.
