so after reading the about what reachhigh thinks is the worst bolted route in the red (see 'online guidebook comments' thread), i'd like to get a census on the absolute WORST bolted route of each number grade in the red.
i'm particularly interested in what rro and anticlimber have to say about this...they seem to like a lot of routes, which is really cool!...but whatever they think sucks balls must be powerful stuff.
my votes:
5.9 - scabies
5.10 & 5.11 - routes at the unlode or buzz at the oasis
5.12 - eric and brians excellent adventure
5.13 - cosmic sausage
worst sport route

Chosspile 5.11d at Sky Bridge Ridge. I don't know if that was it's original name, but fuggin' A - what a steamy pile of crap summed up in one word. Bird shit everywhere up top, potato chip thin rock, rope drag, A0 start, ledge fall potential. It has everything.
Stay Left should be sanded completely off Military Wall and replaced with some nice chiseled hand holds with permanent five inch tick marks painted on with reflective road paint.
Lord of the Flies...the only time I've heard Bob use a string of bad words. I think every newbie should do it, though.

Lord of the Flies is pretty fuckin terrible.
The rightmost 11a at Indy Wall is worse. Complete waste of bolts.
At least all the horrible easy routes from the old crags were there just to fill a need for easy routes...
Theres no excuse for a bad 11.
