all things considered shouldn't even be on this list. it's a great route. it is not slab, slabby, under vert(if so it's by a cunt hair and not a red one at that) and there aren't many spots i remember smearing like mad. this is the poster child fro great vert tech routes; not slab.
skunk love, forgot bout that one. true slab-you can stand in the middle of the crux and go, "what the fuck?"
possum lips - slab, unless you bitch traverse way right

kentucky flu!!! how could i forget?! this one, this is prolly top 3. yeah. borders on that fine line with some friction, some nubbins, some swearing, and a touch of the elvie. easier if you only have half a toe on one foot.

I take back my initial vote and say: Manic Impression!
I know, I know, it's easy for the most part, but the crux is awesome balancey and feels harder than it really is.

Blankety Blank is pure friction but access is sketchy so if it ever opens go check it out. Curbside Attraction is short but has a moment of friction making it worthwhile.
Strip the Willows and Child of the Earth at Slab City.
The Love Shack at Purple Valley has some no holds moments.

Outside the Red...well, slabs dominate.
I have enjoyed many a fine friction line in the South Platte, in North Carolina, and heck, even in Wyoming. Granite friction is a whole different ball of wax.
