Mono Face

Mono Face and the roof boulder. These are adjacent to the upper boulders to the SW.

Other Upper Boulder, west side. Traverse from left to right. Staying lower is a little harder and easier to dab.

Other Upper Boulder, south side. This is a panoramic image, so the right side of the image is slightly distorted. You get the point.

Way Upper Boulder, north face. This panoramic image is very foreshortened making the boulder look much shorter than it actually is.
