Hi going to be there some next week and that weekend. Looking for everything from 5.8 to 5.12 mostly single pitch. Any beta? I'm thinking the monastery looks sick

Ya, I would say check out the Monastery. It's a long hike though. For that grade range I would also recommend Jurassic Park (aka Lily Lake). Short hike, killer setting, fun moderates.

The Monastery is pretty fun (I just got back from there). The hike is pretty long (maybe an hour if you're moving at a moderate pace).
Some of the routes there can be quite tall; too tall to be lowered down on a 60m rope. Worth your while to bring a second rope if you have the pack space (and desire).

Trip roundup: first 12a flash (12b had been my top send) and some good work linking the moves on Psychoatomic (Monastery), the coolest 12d I've ever seen as well as a two hang on Andrology (Jurrasic) which clocks in somewhere between 11d and 12b. Really stoked on the progress I've made and hoping to see some quick ascents of a 12a or two and maybe do significant work on a 12d or 13a project in Rumney next week!!!

Yeah Mark! Grand Ol Opry is so sick looking. After checking it out I watched Tommy's send video - so cool!!!! Josh I was planning on working Great White but since it's going to be low 80s I will probably go to Bonsai to try Kundalini and try to get a number of 11c-12a onsight or second try sends. GW is too sharp for the humidity I'm expecting.
