Last I knew it is Inner Circle/Bronaugh's Wall.
There is a thread somewhere with a link to maps and route descriptions.
Or check the RRGCC cite.

stix and lateralus,

don't think for a second ego is not involved in route development. the satisfaction one gets from it is immense. basically, we are just a bunch of lazy chuffers who arent' willing to put in the effort to redpoint these creations. we get to act generous with our "contribution", when the reality is we probably had no business bolting them in the first place....lol

An here I thought it was because I saw a pretty line that just cried out for bolts, chalk, and tick marks...

pigsteak,
not all route developers are egotists, some bolt to offer them to the community and do so for the satisfaction of seeing other people get on them and enjoy their work. Sending is secondary, so don't think for 1 second that all people see the world as you do.

I know I was joking, and I am sure pigsteak was too. As for me, I saw this beautiful line that needed to be climbed (and cleaned) and wanted to see what the moves were like. Those with some good grip strength should love the route once it is cleaned up.

Pigsteak never jokes about his ego.

The equipers dare to dream.... of being good enough to climb the lines they see. Of course it is only a dream....
If I were to be recruited to be a suicide bomber, 10,000 virgins would not be a carrot for me (not even close- in fact, that would probably make me start going to the Unitarian Universalists, but anyway...)
They could promise me that I would go to a plane of existence where I had a 2-2.5:1 grip strength to body mass ratio, I had the aerobic cardiovascular system of Lance Armstrong, and I had walls upon walls of "Clean Well Lighted Face" like brilliant orange walls, and a shit lode of bolts and hanger, and a belayer.
I might blow myself up for that... :lol:
