Ascents in Monkey World having Beta

Brilliant climbing to the third and final pitch, which is a steady slow overhanging grind to a neat face, and finally some slab, cant ask for more than that!

Fantastic route, top pitch is magic.

Very accessible multipitch with a dreamy view as a reward.

cut in the rain but no shelter on the route. repelled down from 2nd anchor, overhang crux on 2nd pitch

Simul climbed pitch one and two, both lead 3rd pitch and rapped down for a time of 52 mins ground to ground

This pitch was excellent!

Last climb of the trip. The climb itself was awesome with the top pitch being an excellent must do flowfest. The descent however was a bumblefest, but who I was to think I could go through a whole three weeks without an epic. So we were rapping from the anchors of the second last pitch off in the dying light. The day before I had cut my rope because it was core shot. Lost about 5 metres. This is sitting in the back of my head as I pass the anchors of the 2nd pitch and knew we have to do at least another rap. I figured we could do it from the first pitch to the ground. I get to just before the anchors of the first pitch and bam I am stuck. The stopper not gets jammed into the atc. It was at this point I figured I would just use my weight to jam down to the anchors on rope stretch and then take off the atc. Bam get down to the anchors but the atc won't come loose. I up climb a few bolts daisy chain soloing to get to the third bolt. Where I undo the knot and release the rope. I figure I'll tell Erika when she gets to the next bolt after I downclimb to the anchors. I daisy chain solo down to the anchors just in time to look up and see Erika pretty much at the bolt I just came down from. She had done the same thing. We have a bit of a discussion and she decides to climb up a bit so she can let the ropes go and pull the ropes through to rap down to the anchors off the bolt she was is at. So lets go of the rope starts to yank and its at this time we realise she had grabbed the wrong rope. So now she has to solo over to grab the other end rope to pull through. She does it raps down to he anchors and we get down alright. This whole ordeal was taking place whilst it was dark. We were 30 metres above the road and could see people coming back to dinner from their day out. It was a completely surreal experience the juxtaposition of being so alone and afraid to being so close to society. Would not do the same again. The words 'I'll get it on rope stretch' should not be a part of any good descent. Bad experiences make wiser decisions. Erika however was nowhere near freaked out. That finnish stoicism at its finest.

We were a three person party. We started at 12pm with a bit of sun. In the shade at about 1pm. Back on the ground at about 5pm. Great route, especially P3 and 4.

Awesome climb! Some parts were quite sharp. Pitch 2/3 are consistently and sustained spicy! David and I haven't really done many multipitches before this one and my adrenaline was going 110%. Stressed AF. Overall pretty good climb and fairly graded. Fuming I can't claim the tick because of 1 take on pitch 3 lmao.

beautiful climb. the last few moves to the P4 anchor was a highlight

Bonus points for navigating the bat cave and coming down rabies-free.

Only to 3rd pitch top. What a crowded route.

With Tom on one of his first multi's

All the jugs

Really super cool varied face and tufa stemming

I think this was actually a 6a..? Sharp rock that sliced my knee open and an inconveniently located overgrowing vine are just two things that made this pitch a little crummy.

Beautiful climbing. Loved this pitch.

Struggled on this pitch but ultimately found it a great climb.

Lesson: eat lunch before afternoon multipitch.

Got it cleanly right up until I was about a foot below the belay station and completely ran out of energy and couldn't make the last couple of moves before my hands just gave up. Just had nothing left. Beautiful climbing, though. Would love to do again less exhausted.

Beautiful climb. Loved it. Favourite pitch.

I loved this pitch right up until the intermediate belay station, after which the style completely changed and I struggled quite a bit. Again, would love to retry when not completely exhausted.

Awesome climbing and very nice cave in the end.

Doesn't worth it if you're not going to climb 2nd pitch.

Flora is eating this route. Was hesitant on 1st pitch because 2 bolts are hidden in foliage and can't be seen from below. Second pitch is even worse - after 3rd bolt it is completely covered with lianas. Did instead 2nd pitch of Chunky Monkey which was wonderful.

The last pitch is really awesome. Very sustained with lots of cool rock features.

First ever multipitch!! So much fun to get some exposure and an engaging final pitch to lead!

Stopped at first pitch

Only first pitch now. We'll try again at a better time.

Loved this pitch!!! Nice moves, nice sequence.

Great idea to do Big Wave after Humanlity. We did it on a big group with Pe, ShiHui and Hann. Great fun and some nice climbing.

Great view, I can see my bathroom at Mambo.

My favourite pitch. Nice finish. Avoid the intermediate belay station, go directly for the last and don't use it for abseil either if you have a 60 metre to directly to the top of p3. Hann lost his camera in one of the abseils and then dropped a show. Then we were attacked by mosquitoes and had to run for a beer.

Awesome views!

Awesome climb. First part a bit overhangy and then gets to classic scramble.

Awesome 3d climb. Must try

Lena's first multi-pitch with Franka & I. Excellent climbing on quite a pocketed and varied wall. The final pitch is truly the best one with a pockety overhung start into a somewhat 3D tufa finish. Stunning. All the rock is bomber and the route is well protected. 10/10 would climb again.
