Give this a few days and we should put together a list. I think there should be two categories, though. Routes that top out and those that don't. Sometimes the neatest views aren't vast panoramas but little teasing glimpses through cracks or land framed by a cave opening.

The best view I have ever seen in the Red was on the hood of a car this fall, I had met my climbing partner and just gotten in the truck when these two chicks just stetched out on the hood of a car in front of us, it was "memorable", there are so many good top outs and views already mentioned, one I have liked is even touron accessible, Princess Arch.

one of my favorite views in the Red is looking up at a hot, shirtless climber while I'm belaying him

Amen, Sistah! And who would you say provides the best view?
Fo' real dough ... I loved the scenery from the top of Foxfire. Canuck, when are we doing that one again?

I haven't decided yet. I need to do more "research." So if there are any hot guys who want to climb with me after the thaw, applications are now being accepted. It's purely for statistical purposes, of course.
I really need to do Foxfire this year. It keeps sounding better and better.

Yeh, but who is going to admit to being a hot guy? Isn't that conceded? I would think that with all the sophisticated men on this site you will not get any applications for hot guys.

pffft, who needs sophistication when you have a nice view?

I wondered how long it would take til this thread took this turn
Meadows, any time. Though I promised a couple other people I'd take them up it too.
Sandy, definitely get on it. Easy climbing in the run-out sections. Good gear in the 5.7 sections.
