Trip to HP 40 later this week and wanted to know what are the best problems in your eyes to hit up. Thanks for your suggestions!
Climb hard and climb safe!

Check out Popeye (V5), it's a pretty sweet problem. Crown (V3) is another good, pretty easy one, with a fun dyno opportunity at the top. Definitely check out Bum Boy (Vdebated), and it's brothers Centerpede (V6?) and Millipede(V?). The most aesthetic line (that I've seen in my short visits there, is Man with the Slow Hand (V4).

Enjoy, and hope you get cool temps for sendin.

Earth, Wind and Fire V4 (sketchy slab watergroove)
Twix Lips V4 (sketchy slab watergroove)
Grooverider V3 (sketchy slab watergroove)

Notice a pattern here? ;) IMO, these are some of the more aesthetic and unique problems.

Dope V2 (sketchy bulbous squeeze problem)
Double Groove V3 (sketchy bulbous squeeze problem)
Bum Boy V3/4/5 (sketchy bulbous squeeze problem)
Millipede V6 (sketchy bulbous squeeze problem)
Orca V3 (sketchy bulbous squeeze problem)

Another pattern? :D

Panty Shields V3 one of my favorites.

Wasp, Circumcision, eight ball all great warmups and gives you a good fill for the rock. (V2's)


Was working Green Lantern (V4) this weekend, fun problem that I never hear anyone mention. (didn't get it, next time)

After that, pretty much what the other's said.

Thanks guys for all the help. Just got back and had a great time. The temps are droping and climbing is getting better. Had my best luck sending problems after 11pm.
Still too hot to give great white a shot. Looked like a cool problem.
