The Sentinel -Birdsbeak Spire,IV, 5.10, A2, FA: Will Oxx and John Middendorf, 1993, as seen from Courtney and my failed ascent of the Sentinel, Zion National Park, April, 2007. Check out the similarity between this spire and Radek's Monkey Face addition from Smith Rocks.

sure does!

look like MF from this angle. how tall is it? guessing "big" given the grade IV rating. nice shot.

Re: sure does!

800' route Radek...you can assume the rock quality is not worth a damn...I would not touch it with a 10' pole....does not seem like anybody else wants to either, try to find anyone besides the first accentors who have done it...but yeah the closer we got, the more it looks just like MF (mouth becomes more prominent)..this is the best photo I have, but it was outright uncanny the resemblance I thought..Cheers
