Monico Boulders

After reading about these boulders, I looked at my topo map and realized that I have seen these boulders too. I remember you could see one heavily graffiti boulder from the highway. I never checked them out, but they look pretty thin and pretty hard! Looks like it could be some decent climbing though.

James, did you try climbing any of the boulders?

No Pete I didn't, I didn't bring my shoes. Guess I didn't expect to find these things. I'm sketchy about the access too...

They looked really good though and it seemed as though there might be a handful of quality problems.

The Monico Boulders were originally a hang-out training area for a couple of local Rhinelander climbers. I spent a summer in the area and climbed a bunch at Monico. The big long angled arete is a standing project. I cleaned off the moss and needles, but never finished it.
I've never had access issues, but its always a good idea to stay discrete.

I stopped by here on the way home from up north and had quite a bit of fun. It beats the bouldering at High Cliff. Its also nice and in the shade so relatively cool on 90 degree days.

I posted a couple of the note worthy problems. Have fun.
