We were there on Saturday, and while looking up at this, were only able to see 7 bolts, with an obvious runout portion in between the 4th and what we figured was the 6th bolt (or 5th and 7th, I can't remember). Figuring that it must just be hidden, my partner ended up climbing to the 4th bolt, then climbing about another 8 feet or so. He was unable to see another bolt, and with decking potential if a hold were to break, he backed off the route. Is it really that runout, or is it missing a bolt?
On another subject, the right anchor bolt at the top of One Brick Shy is very loose (and I'm not sure of the appropriate place for posting this information).

Re: Monkey in the Middle at the Zoo
I've climbed this route many times (even a couple of weeks ago) and know that the bolts are all there, but I believe the 6th one is hard to see - it's just over the bulge. The one to the right of it (and just left of One Brick) requires a cam down low.chemist wrote:We were there on Saturday, and while looking up at this, were only able to see 7 bolts, with an obvious runout portion in between the 4th and what we figured was the 6th bolt (or 5th and 7th, I can't remember).
