Your Favorite 5.12 at Red Rock
|
I'm sure this is probably a dead horse so feel free to direct me to a previous thread, but I was wondering what everyone's favorite single pitch 5.12 is at Red Rock. No bias toward angle, style or anything else, just your favorite route (and maybe why?) |

That route is beastly.I don't doubt that it is hard for it's grade (I haven't done it). But this is a difficult comparison. If you have wide skill, I would say you are wrong. Go send Pet Shop Boys (12d) and then get back to me on this one. (This is just one of many routes on my list of climbs that will surprise people who think RR sport is soft.) edit: I have many friends who have done the Warrior, but aren't able to send most of the 12s in RR. |

I don't climb anywhere near 5.12, but Seduction Line, 12a looks so sick. Make me WANT to climb 5.12 |
|
Rainbow Country is one of the best 5.12s anywhere. The Velvet Tongue is a close second. Damn miss Red Rocks!!! |
