The farthest route left at the Monster's crag start up what seems like an easy 5.10 which at the top turns in to a super tricky 5.11....
You end up in a weird corner/roof thing using really weird awkward beta to gain the chains.... The crux really is quite cool, but a few cool moves won't make a route classic.... Not a bad warm up for the harder stuff since the crux is short and at the top....
Somewhat typical of the left side routes at this crag, not too memorable but kinda interesting....
Farthest left route at Monsters from the Id...
4 bolts to anchor.

[Hide Comment] Not sure if anyone has tried using the sloper to the right of that heinous crimp, but I thought it worked a lot better that way. Also, the beginning felt a lot easier than 5.10 climbing for me.

[Hide Comment] I'd love to see someone do this the techy 11c way. I just dyno'd from the flake to the slopey/sharp rail to a ways above it. It felt much easier to me...
