Monsters from the Id

Monsters is known for it's hard steep routes with a bouldery nature. However, there are some fun but slightly less-classic, less-steep 11s and 12s on the left hand side of the crag.

This is a great place to climb hard on cold winter days. The southern exposure can make the crag nice and warm as long as the sun is out. It also is nice on a summer morning, since it stays in the shade for a while. The only real issue here is the seepage which can shut down many routes in the spring.

Classics include Heaven (5.11a), Journey to a Mushroom Planet (5.13a), and Parallel Universe (5.14a) and a host of other awesome hard routes.

Some interesting link ups:

Freezer Burn (5.13c)

Starts on The Boogieman and traverses right, under the roof, to finish all the way over on Journey to a Mushroom Planet. I've also seen this called Bird Incubator

No Shit (5.13b/c)

Starts on The Boogieman and finish up Parallel Universe

Steady Slobbin' (5.14b)

Starts up Parallel Universe and finishes up The Boogieman's arete.

All Day Slacker (5.14b)

Start up Parallel Universe and traverse to Journey to a Mushroom Planet's anchor after the 4th bolt.
