Slope Jump

After the UFO monkey you can get up onto the ledge behind him with a simple slope jump.

Go into the left corner and run up the slope for a bit and then double jump to the right.

More optimally you can do an Advanced Slope Jump which is harder but allows you to skip the ledge grab for a small time save.

Left Side (Easiest Method)

There is also the harder right side slope jump, which is a tiny bit faster but way cooler.

Instead of the left corner, go to the right corner.

Here you want to run towards the slope and aim to the left of the patch of grass on the wall.

This requires the "Advanced Slope Jump" so: right before you hit the slope you want to let your left stick go neutral and jump quickly after, you will fly up the slope in a standing pose.

From the standig pose, simply double jump to the left to get on the ledge.
