If you could only climb one more route, before an asteroid impact destroyed the earth, what would you climb?

Rules- the climb must be within your abilities at this moment, including having the means to get there. The hypothesis is that asteroid would impact within 3 days from now.

hah - bigwall solo would definetely be a good way to go...

I'd have to fly to thailand and climb above a gorgeous beach... about any climb with a beach and surf below it would do.

I would go to Arco, Italy It takes about 10 hours tot drive From the netherlands to Arco.
In 2 and a half day I have left I'll do a few of the 1000+ routes there.
When I can't climb anymore I could still eat my favorite food, Pizza. :D
