I'm picturing a tri-cam at the end of a 20' pole :D

I taped a cam to the end of a tree branch AKA DIY stick clip, to place the first, crux piece on Wop Stop:

The crux was getting the pro in for this move.

This is The Master climber! (This did make me laugh though,hey Big A)
I hope some one has it & steps forward.
Again for those that don't make it a habbit to follow the major forces in the Gunks Andy has systematicly put up the leads of the un-led (top rope )test pieces of the area!
Since I'm not to shy to say did you ask Richie R about the scooped face to the righ of Arrow wall?
I saw you guys included some things and not others?

Peter Hovling hit a very hard 11? 12a 'TROPHY HUNTER' maybe only 11c for you ?
(if you can't reach the bucket up on the face . It was a dyno's from the point,)
that climbs out the pointed rock shaped roughly like an arrow or a . . . .
that juts out mid-way thru 'Gems Gym'
(the Romano thing traversing left of 'Exit Stage Left' )
ask Peter.

Breaking out of 'Wicked Dianna to turn the edge into the heavy lichen, Is ' Sticky Vicky'
Only 'led' with a fixed line to clip, hung from the top, thru the lichen.

Merlin Larson led thru the left side of the top of 'Modern Times Direct',
hard crimps to a mantel with a micro-wave block sitting on the small awkward ledge in the short capstone.( that was kind of a boulder problem avoiding the excellent Direct that passes the amazing slot and 2 holes )

Did you check out the climbs left of and right (?) of lost world ( again the direct is different than the Don P rout.
I took J Khel up there, he led it then solo'd it

Pretty sure That no one has climbed the leaning collum off left of 'High Times'?

And the one I've captured a shifty picture of left of Bone Hard?.

Left edge , distorted

Gottlieb's Sky Writing?

A climb Jimmy Munson was on
'Starting In The Middle', has a vicious first pitch that is do-able,
it is the parallel running roof crack To the Face above ( the middle ) never linked the moves
It is the obvious big roof /face 'up hill' from the Omitted 'Wango Tango'.

There were Dougy Hunter routes and 'Scary' Larry Schaffer/Paul Marshall routes
The one I know for sure in a Chasm at Lost City that they called Glistening Vibro-foam'

Only one Mike Siacca route?

This is just a short list off the top of my head.
I'm sure there will be attitude for the thread drift.
I'll see if I can find that thread that you all threw up,
But this was to draw fire for your lost stick.
