Description
This is a fun route with a crux about 10' off the deck. Good protection make this an excellent choice for the budding leader.
Gear anchor.

Descent
Option 1: Walk quite a ways west (climber's left) along ledge system and downclimb 4th/low 5th class gully to the right of Swishbah.
Option 2: You can also descend between The Mikado and Crown Jewels by crawling through a small hole and down a couple of wide chimneys. It will drop you a lot closer to your packs, but it's a bit of a grunt and it may not save you much time.
Option 3: Traverse west (left) on ledges and through a slot to the belay/rap anchors at the top of Monaco; a short (~60ft) and steep rappel brings you quickly back to the ground.
