Eric and Bryan's Excellent Adventure
One thing I have learned is never take other peoples word on route quality. What one person considers a "pile" another may really enjoy. Climb it and form your own opinion. Only then can you really tell someone what you think of a climb. Of course you can look at some routes from the ground and tell that they are no good, but again you really have to climb it to know.
A good example is Way Up Yonder at Roadside. I have heard for years that the top pitch was loose crap and no fun...when in fact the rock is great and exposure is even better... just climb it.
