Well, you got the Needles classic "White Punks on Dope", so my buddy and I are working on a route at Margherittaville we plan on calling "White Trash on Tweak", just to fit in with the local culture.

I too, have not read the last few pages, but I have always liked names that played on words or sayings. That said, there is a route at Lumpy Ridge called "Poultry in Motion". Another good one that I remember from somewhere is "All Chalk and no Action".

OKCRocks (a closed-grain-silo-turned-climbing-gym here in oklahoma city) has a route named Dental Plan. I don't think it was the original FA name, but the story is that a leader who had a habit of using his teeth while clipping took a wicked fall and the rope yanked his teeth out. It's a decent blue (ratings are like skiing: green, blue, black), but I'm not much of an indoors guy, so i'm not going to try and rate it.

There's a really cool crack in J-Tree called Candy-Colored Tangerine Flake Streamlined Baby.
We're not sure how it got the name but it's a really nice 10b

Just recently I was "leading" this route where I could not find any pro for the first 2/3 of the route. At the crux, I found a really manky #5 stopper placement, then nothing else, so I bailed onto an easier route, and soloed up it. When I got back down I realised that it was called "Illequipt" :lol:
I now pay more attention to route names :lol:

Good question. I just saw the thread but it looks like it has been around. I've put up several sporter's with sick twisted names but It looks like you guys have that covered. The last route I put up before my shoulder injury was a route in the Beartooths here in Montana called Rattlesnake Ocean 5.10c A3. Don't want to start a verbal war here but to me it seems that trad big wall climbs in an alpine setting deserve a "mature" name, among others, especially when being asked questions about it or writing an artical. Does anyone else have a similar type of route they have put up? I guess if I had the energy I could submit my article but I named it because at the bottom of the wall there were rocks that reminded me of Sedona Az.. I was on the wall close to 18 hrs in the rain so through my hallucinatory fatigue the name came to me followed by intense laughter and crying. Great climb. A buddy of mine got the first winter ascent and it's always great to here other people talking about "your route". Almost well. Peace.
