Location: CO : Estes Park Valley : Big Thompson Canyon : The Monastery

Comments: Yes, there is a small guide out there. And there are PLENTY of moderate routes (5.6-5.10), almost one third of the routes are 5.9 and under, well worth the 45er on the hike. Bring plenty of h2o and second layer of skin!!

Comments: Nice route for the grade, but would advise to bring a mix of medium cams and nuts for between bolts. You can also rap the the Tree Roof belay with a 60 meter rope, just be careful of the rope hanging up on a knob about halfway up.

Comments: Nice route, three stars. The opening mover are a little commiting, so place a small(#0 metolius cam or small nut) in the horizontal below the first bolt. After that great hand/foot matches will get you to the top. Give it a try, great climbing!

Comments: The 5.10 roof problem on the far right side of Mt. Boner should be noted to have loose hangers under the roof and above, probably just need a wrench, so Beware!~

Comments: This is another good route for the area, thin 10c moves down low and much easier after the 3rd bolt. Haven't tried the roof variation, looks cool though. It seems it could use [its] own anchor as you encounter a bit of rope drag at the top.

Comments: Yes, you can clip the bolt over the roof without [committing] to the moves (I'm 5'9"), then power thru the roof, an excellent route for the area.
