Next week I'm headed down to the St. George area and am looking for suggestions. I've climbed down there a fair amount on Prophesy Wall, Black rocks, Green valley gap... but I want to go work on a harder limestone route around the 5.12b grade. I've looked through my guidebook and there seems to be a shit ton of amazing limestone crags idk where to start... Any suggestions on your favourite classics at this grade???

Vesper at Lime Kiln is one of the best routes of the grade anywhere IMO

Mentor at the VRG, but the crux is testing your patience with every single tractor trailer releasing his brakes 10-ft from your belayer. Amazing 12b nonetheless.

Speaking in Tongues at the Cathedral would be my vote if you decide road noise is not your thing.

'It's a good life (12b) and Maximus (12c), both at sunset alley, are great climbs and maximus has some of the best stone I've seen anywhere.

Heretic Wisdom (12a/b) at the Wailing Wall is rad.
