those lengths are inaccurate. for instance, the Rifle man is maybe 70-75'. Snow Crash is 70-75'. The undertow routes listed are all listed too long- take off 20ft.
These are all 60 meter rope stretchers.
Deep Six
Forarm Follies
Orange Juice
Game Boy
Trinket Man

which are the undertow routes, Lurkist? I'll fix that.

tuna town
harvest
both 80-85' (use a 60 m rope but have a bunch left over)

okay, I made the following changes. Lurkist, I went with your long estimates. If anyone knows for certain these are inaccurate, please speak up:

The Rifleman, 75ft (8 bolts)
Snow Crash, 75 ft (10 bolts) - 75 ft and 10 bolts??
Tuna Town, 85 ft (10 bolts)
Harvest, 85 ft (11 bolts)

Game Boy, I found it to be a great route. I have climbed it several times. There was a tree at the top of it last year covering the final crux to the anchors, but I think POWER2U was instrumental in removing the fallen tree and cleaning the route. It should be climbable to the anchors again. If you love thin and delicate routes the way I do, then this routes for you. Beware though, just when you think you've beaten the route, it comes back to get you with its thought provoking finish!
