so i was just curious. whats your favorite climb you've ever done? could be anything, boulder, big wall, single pitch, ice, whatever. and why was it soo awesome. Mine would be the waterfall route at castle rock. i believe its a 5.8 and i liked it because it was a gorgeous view

Holdless Horror. Four pitches of pleasure with an enjoyable approach, a casual descent, and a semi-remote setting.

slip knott at white ghyl (cumbria). fantastic two pitch route up some of the lakes finest rock. ok so its only severe / vs when i have climbed alot harder, but it has the largest fun factor in two pitch's.

either that or the 9 pitch route done on handeigg (switerland). anouther good fun route.

yeah the approach to the waterfall wasnt too bad to begin with, but as u got closer it got a little gnarly. but i mean climbing next to a water fall? doesnt get much nicer than that

Either West Crack on Daff Dome or South Crack on Mountaineers Dome, both in Tuolumne. Awesome views from the top...

Either Sons of Yestyrday linked with Serenity Crack because the whole thing is so dang fun, or The Moratorium/East Face link up for the sustained lie backing and length of the climb!

too many to mention.... a few would be:

Polar Circus- Icefields parkway early 98; the line speaks for itself.... avalanche prone slope above is the scariest part to consider....

Cornerstone Rib Direct- Crater Bluff Spire, Warrumbungles Australia.... about 700' of 5.7....

Mt Tantalus- 5.4 ridge in the Tantalus Range, BC....

Such a tough question you ask. :? There are so many great routes.
I guess my favorite route is the next one. Or is it the one after that?
