That's sort of like saying one fifty year old single malt scotch is better than another.

Multipitch doesn't matter, nor the quality of the rock. The better crag is obviously the one with the most sandbagged grades, and I think we all know which one that is...

I've climbed quite a bit in both places. They're both great in their own ways.

I learned how to lead in the Gunks, and I've never climbed in Eldo. Clearly, Eldo sucks.

Climbed a lot both places as a week-end hacker. Gunks has more route finding challenges, & is probably the best area in the country for really fun easy & moderate routes. On the other hand, Eldo is way better for multi-pitch/exposure: Yellow Spur blows High Exposure out of the water for air under your feet (and I love both routes). Great rock quality both places-and I say this having climbed a lot of rock in the Cascades.

Iv'e climbed a ton in Eldo and visited the Gunks once and almost prefer the Gunks now. They could clean up some of that peeling paint lichen, though. A few wire brushes would do it. Chop chop. Yellow Spur is definitely more impressive than High E.

Everyone should go to Eldo then, and leave the Gunks alone!

At least it isn't 20 bucks a day per person to climb at Eldo!
