Peak Mountain 3

Monkey Pants (direct)

Description

Rather than following the obvious jug haul on the left side, stand-start low on the right side with a decent under-cling. Make big moves to the vertical crack and follow the sharp, minuscule crimps, to the same top out as Monkey Pants(left).

Hard and intimidating line due to the ledge out right. Be mindful of a big swing and subsequent landing if you miss the top-out move to the horn, as it's BIG! Before sending it there were several falls that resulted in landing super far back and right of the boulder problem, nearly missing the pads. There are sharp tree stumps in the landing as well. Be cautious!

Location

Highway 233 boulder, on the right side of the highway after turning onto highway 3 towards Bar Harbor.

Protection

Pads and good spotters to protect the obvious protruding ledge in the fall zone. There are also sharp tree stumps protruding from the ground here, so be cautious. Many pads are recommended.
