Anyone been up Petronius on the Monk?

[BigWave]

Earlier this season, before the Farwell fire grew to epic porportions. Some freinds and I went up to climb Cathedral Pk. in the Pasayten. Cruised into the Mine day one...then climbed the NE ridge of Cathedral to check the descent for the SE Butt. Day three we planned to do a couple routes on the Monk and then move to the SE Butt on Cathedral... well we chose to hop on Petronius on the Monk. A beatiful looking crack line with a mysteriuos "hanging flake" near the top. The climb was great, some wide thrutching, a small hand crack, some blocky cruising...and then into the "belay cave." At the cave I got onto the wall and couldn't find the "hanging flake" I tried then to find a way through the boulder choked roof of the cave.. What a bitch that was! After trying to pretend I was Wolfgang Gullich I had to lower back out of the roof of doom.. and that sent me back to the face. After trying to muster all of my manlyness I got onto the face 7' over a .75 horizontal camalot in a grainy flairing shallow crack I was hosed..no where to go.. I couldn't find the line. I couldn't even make an aid move.. There was just a yellow stain that looked like the rock had been recently exposed to the air, possibly the past home of the "hanging flake" ? Then we bailed. Four raps back to the gulley and we were spent. We bagged the SE Butt. The fire started getting closer, and we left just as they were closing all the trailheads that access the Chewack R. drainage. Anyway has anyone done this route and have any idea where I went wrong? Is the flake still there and I was just too low and pussed out?
