Description

Prominent vertical crack towards the north side of the west-facing face of The Face of God. Named for the “monkey face” that shows up in afternoon light across the face of this formation when viewed from Faulty Towers area. Hanuman is the name of the monkey god from the Hindu class, The Ramayana (i.e. a part of the Mahabharata). The “tail” of this climb refers to the vertical crack that looks like the monkey god’s tail. Climb this crack to the roof, where there are two hangers and biners for lowering/top-roping, or clip a bolt above the roof and traverse ~5 ft to the right to continue up the second vertical crack to easier face climbing protected with horizontal placement to anchors on top of the formation. Two bolts protect the slightly sketchy and bulgey climbing to get up into the crack.
