Great Ape Escape

Climbs the north side of Gaping Ape Rock. Begins with thin friction move past second bolt. After mounting an obvious platform, fenesse through an easy layback for an easier finish. Route requires a light cleaning at the beginning of each season. Summit top anchors can be reached with a short scramble from the uphill backside.

Route is visible from the base of Evil Monkey looking south. Refer to Rock Climbing Western Oregon, Vol. 2: Umpqua, 2007. Map 3a page 104.
