Can anyone recommend list of 5.8 – 5.10a top rope routes where anchor can be set-up by hiking/scrambling up (not lead climbing the route first)?

Thanks,
-bro

Definitely check out the Thin Wall, at the Real Hidden Valley. I don't recall the exact routes/ratings, but most of them aren't terribly hard, and all of the anchors are attainable from a scramble up either side of the wall.

Shorter Wall in Lost Horse also fufills your criteria.

Keep in mind, you need cams to set up almost all of the top rope setups....
