Foxfire's top out has to be my favorite.
Minus Tiruth and Into the Purple Valley are good to.
Full moon
Check Canopy
Most of the routes at Muscle beach have a great view
These all pale after you have topped out at Seneca.

Agree!

Agree with Seneca too!

Topping out on Seneca and Table just make me hungry for something higher.
It's like chasing numbers but instead its exposure. I sat on top of a 1000 foot cliff once In Arizona, but I didn't climb it to get there.It was cool but climbing it would have been much better.
Oh and Good Tang is a nice top out.Great Route too
It's no coincidence that some of the best topouts in the Red have Mr. Day's name on them.

In the Red:
Minas Tirith and Major's Pinnacle

There is also a dome near the mouth of Bald Rock Fk. that has a 5th class scramble to the top and a great view. It's about 100+ feet of exposed rock to a nice small summit. Might be where Bald Rock got its name. Very cool formation.

Outside this area I would have to say my favorite top out was The North Ridge on Table Rock.

The Prow, something like 300 degrees of exposure at the topout. Closed, unfortunately.

the grand teton has a nice top out and a hell of a view. the next highest peak is 1,000 feet below.

Around here dog days was my most memorable top out. not a very good one but man you don't forget puling up on disingrating moss and dirt above a piece very easily.

Yup. Was it soaking wet too? That makes that route even better. Once you've pulled the crux you're not gonna let a bit of wet OW stop you either.

Mr. bungles!
