Favorite Robbins Routes

supertopo.com/climbers-foru…

Idea unabashedly foisted from ST thread above (thanks drljefe), but I thought it would be nice to hear from the MP community on this one. So...

What are your favorite Robbins routes?!

My list:

Open Book, Tahquitz. Obvious historical significance. Personally, this felt like a breakthrough into 'real' multipitch, traditional climbing.

The Vampire, Tahquitz. If Open Book was my first breakthrough, The Vampire represents the next. Sustained, exposed, beautiful. Feels a lot bigger than its three pitches.

The Buissonier, Joshua Tree. I found out on this route that I could not, in fact, climb 5.7; still intimidating...

Athletes feat at castlerock in boulder canyon!!

Whodunit - what a great route.

The Right Ski track at Josh. From the ground.....

1954.... on site free solo, in Mountain Boots....

Every time I do that one (with a cord) I am amazed.

I had forgotten whodunit was one of his. Classic!

Guy, that's ballistic. I climbed the lower a couple weeks ago and was thinking about how poor the feet are...in rock shoes!

Really? That thing is 5.10c! Why doesn't the route entry on MP list him as the FA?

Favorite that I have done (of course there are probably other's I didn't even know were Robbins routes):

Fantasia at Lover's Leap. Very bold.

All of the best ones I have yet to do. Bucket list: RNWF Half Dome
