Description

This boulder is my last proud addition to the Sacred Earth subarea. Cornily, the name came from how "Mega" the line was and being right next to the Monolith, it just made sense.

Built the landing as much as I could. However there's an inevitable drop off that seems pretty menacing when you're climbing the boulder. Bring a lot of pads, experienced spotters, and a whole lot of stoke, it's a proud one.

Location

This boulder gazes upon the upper deck, just above the Monolith.

Start is on the first obvious hold on two slopey edges. The start is a bit funny due to having to climb onto the pedestal underneath the boulder and do the first few moves with it.
