Arron, How hard do you think Maypop is ? I thought that Aqueduct pocket was quite a bit easier than Maypop.

I'm with Allah on this one. Too Many Puppies is one of the greats, yet not many people do it. Super asthetic line, great moves and cool holds. Definately one of the best for the grade.

man i onsighted aquaduck pockets and had to take 3 runs to get maypop. too many puppies is on my list for sure. on maypop i had to really watch how i went into the crimps near the second bolt.

I'm with Allah and One-Fall, Too Many Puppies is the best route over there, but those angle irons make me a bit nervous.

garageclimber,

You are not the first person to say that. What about the route do you not like? I'm really curious, probably because it is one of my favorites in the RRG. So I can understand where you are coming from, what are a few of your favorite routes?

im not sure... i only got on it once and it was the first thing i got on that day and the first day of the trip so/?.?.? that might be it but i just felt like more akward moves than i would normally like, maybe it just caught me on a bad day... ya never know... i think my favorite route so far in the red is wild yet tasty... i think that route is just awsome! especially since i dont use the shit credit card intermediates and just through from the 2 slots to the jug... just awsome moves and good high clips... i also really like ro ... i think its just all around fun and for a slab climb that has some amazing iron deposit rock , a cool view and a neat start i liked fast food christians... hmm i could go on but i think i'll stop...
