Description

Summit Dome is a great wall to arrive at after climbing many of the multi-pitch climbs at the "Monitor". If viewing from the car parking, up the ridge called the nose, you will see 2 distinct domes on the way to the summit. The first dome hosts the obvious pair of parallel cracks leading up to the SUMMIT DOME. Here you'll find 5 new 100' pitches! If you climb the 600' [Trooper Traverse] up to the saddle, you'll arrive at the base of the SUMMIT DOME.
