Monterey Rock is basicly a limestone cliff area on the edge of a reservoir. The community has developed around it and its become a landmark over time. Now its where seniors go to vadilize there class year and do drugs. Theres a shitload of urban ledgends there from sucide to people getting raped by hobos. Well i need something to do this summer so i went and checked it out


From the west i went up the slope to get to the lookout area of the rock
_______________________________________________________________________


The peak lookout area
_______________________________________________________________________

Looking to the west you can see Monterey Stadium on the left. Where all the football, track, and graduation ceremonies happen
_______________________________________________________________________

General Motors plant. In 7 years it closes down, what an exploration place then, huh?
_______________________________________________________________________

A bunch of "Class of ’06" bullshit
_______________________________________________________________________

Looking down
_______________________________________________________________________

To the left of the opening to the lookout area theres a little weed hidden path to a cliff area
_______________________________________________________________________


I wonder how many people have jumped off this as a beer dare
_______________________________________________________________________

Ground level view of the jump area. About a 30 foot drop into 6 inch deep rocky water
_______________________________________________________________________

Going back to the opening into the lookout area, you go to the right and you see a rocky, stairlike path downwards
_______________________________________________________________________

First ridge off, about 6 feet below lookout area, looks like someone busted their head on that brick shooting out on the left. Hobos?
_______________________________________________________________________

Not much to see, same drop distance as jump area just with weeds growing through the rocks
_______________________________________________________________________

Continuing down the stairs
_______________________________________________________________________

Sandy area and the bottom with some nice flowers. Ill just leave them alone
_______________________________________________________________________

Looks like theres a face on top of that big rock there
_______________________________________________________________________

On top of the big face rock, its starting to smell like piss and river now from the cave. Theres a narrow ridge leading into the cave. Very sandy but luckily either someone encarved little foot pads on there or they just eroded away
_______________________________________________________________________

Peek around the corner for hobos
_______________________________________________________________________

Looks safe, shitloads of "Love" vandalism. The smell of urine is starting to stick on my clothes
_______________________________________________________________________

The ground over there is disturbingly wet
_______________________________________________________________________

Blunts, Joints, Cigarettes, Beer Cans, Dimebags, and the remnants of a fire
_______________________________________________________________________

Ed loves Phy. Ed? I gotta give whoever engraved this credits, its over a half inch deep
_______________________________________________________________________

Lesbian?
_______________________________________________________________________

Here is where i took some panoramic shots but because i used up most of my memory on the close shots i had to reduce the picture size. This along with the mist over the reservoir and the cloudyness made the pictures more blurry. I enhanced them as best i could and put them in a gif, estimated the distances, and labled where i was standing.


_______________________________________________________________________

My overall conclusion: The hobo rape myths where made by the seniors originally to keep lowerclassmen away from there "special spot" then stupid people took it too seriosly, changed the stories, and now people go there to do drugs and drink at night as a "thrill". The most i was worried about was catching some cracked up maniac passed out in there, but my fears where unessicary aparently. Its a nice looking monument with a "secret"(yeah, right) area for "naughty things". But thats just in this experts opinion

Not too impressive as a "special spot"(you said it’s a landmark for god’s sake), but very impressive as an egg, 5*.
