Eldorado Hidden Classics List

So we all know the famous classics in Eldo (Naked Edge, Center Route, Bastille, Genesis and so on) but what I'm want to know are the hidden classics and almost classics that are your favorites (grades aside!). I've found that I've missed so many great routes over the years and am just now starting to discover them. Please, help me find the rest of the hidden gems! What are your under appreciated and seldom done classics in Eldo?

To get the list started...

1. Brand New Cadillac, Cadillac Crag
2. Scorpions, Peanuts Walls
3. On the Crest, Rincon
4. Psycho Pigeon, Redgarden Wall
5. Interceptor, Bastille

I really like

6. bats ass dihedral, rincon

Green Slab Direct

Here's two seldom climbed, but excellent pitchs;
Crossfire, Bastille
Stargate, Cadillac Crag

Practice climb 101 in it's entirety. This thing is really neglected. Green Willow Wall is really good also.
Oh, Scary Canary too. It's not really scary either.

The Crab on Hawk-Eagle is a very interesting, if not short and easy, climb. Can you say chock-stone squeeze?

I agree with psycho pidgeon with the psychosis start. I think Psychosis is 4 stars, its a little iffy getting off the ground (you can do the 3OF start its better protected). And the rock/climbing in p2 is notr the best but p3 is as good as it gets, I think its longer, better quality climbing (more real crack), and more sustained than the vertigo roof. Really good.

3 old farts is also overlooked and classic in that area.

grand giraffe is more classic than hidden, but it rarely gets climbed and is spectacular with classic history.

west ridge-
super scooper is a very good 9+ that never gets climbed, same with mineral maze, 11+.

Yes it is.

To the guys who said Star Wars and Grand Giraffe (I know you said GG was more classic than hidden)--I looked them both up on this site and they both have LOTS of ticks/comments etc. So, sorry, they're not hidden at all, just classic. I think those are the only ones I've seen on this thread that I've done; that's why I checked.
Edit: Forgot about Green Slab Direct--I don't think that's hidden either, based on number of comments on this site.

Good thread:

I second Green Willow Wall
Quiet Desperation
False Prophet
Marie Anoinette
Jericho
The Serpent
South Face of Tower One
Rover (Pitch two)

Climb Safe,

Everything on Cloud 9

Ok maybe a little. Where the heck are you these days Josh?

"Scrutiny on the Bounty", totally wierd and worth it.

Scary Canary and Practice Climb 101 for sure. The Diving Board is really sweet to but I rarely see anyone on it.

I AGREEEEE

Thought of a few more:

Le Void
Evangaline above the lip
Red House (not a classic, but really obscure)
Mellow Yellow (not that obscure, but mega-classic)
Direct start to Super Slab

Get crankin,

LOL! great idea, good work.

Don't know how hidden these are, but they are very good climbs:

Land of Ra
Point Break
Italian Arete to Smoke and Mirrors

Don't know how "hidden" these are, but Zot Face doesn't seems to be climbed as much as the other routes right there and one of my favorite new to me routes is Moonlight Drive at Cadillac. Fun list to check out.

Darkness 'til Dawn is superb. Not so hidden, but not too prominent either. Actually, its location is kind of obscured...

Add Brevitata to that pitch for a fun Rincon outing
