Is Monadnock really the most-climbed mountain in the world?
Maybe. Mt. Fuji in Japan has probably held that distinction for many years. However, a couple of years back someone asked if the introduction of cable cars on Mt. Fuji would mean fewer climbers and thus Monadnock would perhaps now be the top dog, so to speak. My very cursory search of the internet has not revealed anything about cable cars on Mt. Fuji, though there is at least one cable on another mountain that provides great views of Mt. Fuji. But there seems to be no dispute that Mt. Monadnock is the most climbed mountain in the United States, and probably the second most climbed in the world.
