I just wanted to take the time to thank all of you on your posts! I will look into all that is there. I am also intrested in mixed climbs and I have heard of some mulit pitch sport climbs. But not sure if any exist out there. If you know then post something. But thanks again for all of the posts!!!!!!!

Not many super long, multi pitch sport routes at the new. You could also hit the junkyard or bridge buttress and set up TR's on all kinds of cool trad lines. That is one more cool thing about the new - it has a bunch of easy TR setups.
