Uhh... the only one I know off the top of my head is Ruby's Cafe. That thing scares me to look at. There is that other one on Supercrack Buttress a ways up from Supercrack, but I forget what it's called. What's the one that Caldwell ate it on?

actually Tommy was whippin' big on Broken Brain at the Cliffs of Insanity. he got committed to a layback and that'n gets a bit sandy at the top.

5.13 @ Supercrack buttress is Pink Flamingo.

although Liquid Sky is not 5.13, it might as well be...

i hear from some who have tried that it is really scary for even medium body types and impossible for large guys (you could get stuck!!!)

There is also now Learning to Fly, and From Sweden with Love, both established by Didier Berthod and confirmed/repeated by Sonnie Trotter. Also Air Swedin, the extension to Swedin-Ringle (13R) made famous in the video Return to Sender. Interesting to note that although the footage in the video made it seem that Eric Decaria got the second ascent of this route, it was the third...Renan Ozturk got it before him, you can hear him shouting encouragement from near the camera on the last/crux moves-his ascent didn't get filmed. The trilogy of Creek finger cracks is supposed to be Pink Flamigo, Ruby's Cafe, and Tricks are for Kids. The guidbook also lists Six Star Crack (thin hands), Optimator (ringers and stacks), Belly Full of Bad Berries (OW), Winner Takes All (fingers), and Death of a Cowboy (tips roof). That's all I know of-

There's also a Nathan Martin Route next to Slot Machine called Less Than Zero. It has some bolts and is supposed to be 13-. Nathan also has a 13- at the Love Wall called Power Of Love(I think.) There's a Dean Potter route, Salt Lake City, at 4x4, Steph thinks it's 5.13. There's also some unsent projects like a Steve Petro splitter at Cliffs of Disappointment and Jack in The Box at the Bridger Jack base.
