I'm not sure I'd call Nutsweat a roof, more like an overhanging traverse...but still awesome. For other Moore's routes: I think the roof move on Bimbo's Bulge is pretty good. Suspiciously Delicious and Break on Through too. Other good NC roofs: Built to Tilt at Shortoff Lost in Space at Hawksbill The end of No Free Lunch at Hawksbill

Air show at Moore's. Not that I could free climb it but the roof on glass menagerie at looking glass should be included.

Stephen King Library at the Obed has got to be up there with Rage (12c) and Maximum Overdrive (13a).

NRG Sport: Lactic Acid Bath, Puppy Chow, Depth Charge. Trad: Greatest Show, Roof of Death, Let's Get Physical, For the RRG, it is interesting, there are not a whole bunch of true roofs (as in, significant sections of horizontal climbing). Sustained walls in the 30-45 degrees overhang range are way more common. Still, there are a few good roof cracks (Dreamthiever, Country Luvin, Better Red Than Dead), and a fun section of Bob Marley Crag has some 5.12 pocket pulling 2-body-length roofs.

Break on Through at Moore's is probably my favorite that I have actually done. Just one move but so cool. Lost in Space at Hawksbill and Yowsah at NRG both look awesome and are on my tick list. There are tons of possibilities at the New if you get into the harder stuff... all of the Coliseum and the Glory Hole, for starters. I would guess most folks who crank hard would probably give Apollo Reed the gold medal for SE roofs.

Yes! A climbing thread! Lost in Space is a mega roof. Also in NC, Shiprock has some kick-ass roof pitches: Hindu Kush, The Broach, both pitches of BOG Man (especially #2)...

My partner fell while following the roof on Lost in Space and gave the rope a core shot, so that one's not too high on my list. I like this roof: mountainproject.com/v/trund… It's not too far from there and is really steep.

Madness Cave in Motherlode @ RRG has long overhanging sport routes, mite not be a true roof; but it looks super cool. Beyond my level, just a fan of people that can climb it.
