That list is as arbitrary as saying every route of a certain grade is the same difficulty.

While it's definitely hard to quantify " best", I do think Green Goblin is the best 5.8 at HCR and that Waves is one of the best 5.8 sport routes that I have climbed in SD. I do agree that it is just one person's opinion and it would be more practical, perhaps, to have a "best of" in each region AND at each grade or range of grades.

seems to be the Most Climbed list rather than best, but everyone has their own thoughts on what is best. only 3 routes from the city of rock? and no 11s, 12s or 13s from idaho, glad to see no one know what is out here

To be fair, most of the climbers at the Red are from Chicago...

How the hell do you put Narcissus on there in place of climbs like New World Order or Freaky Stylee? I see they just went down the list of most popular climbs on Mountain Project for various areas...

I've been on exactly one route from that list (5 gallon buckets at Smith) and it was a great climb. Any list like that is going to be subjective, but everybody knows that, so to me it's a fun read through.

Spot on with Moons of Pluto and Screaming Yellow Zonkers at Smith. Although with such a selective list, I might not have included SYZ as it's very similar in style to Moons of Pluto, but not quite as good.

Post moderate is not the best route at Diablo, winter wall, or even that sector of winter wall. It is an okay route, but kind of a very random selection for any "best 100" list.
