Description Suggest change

This is probably the most famous boulder at Kraft. There are usually climbers on it, or nearby, if the weather permits climbing. There are numerous classic problems on this one boulder including Monkey Bar, Monkey Bar Right, and Monkey Bar Direct.

Getting There Suggest change

From the parking lot  hike the established trails east for about 20 minutes. The trail splits upon reaching the Monkey Bar Boulder such that there is now (2021) a trail on both the south and north side of the rock. The majority of the hard classics are found at the NW corner.
