I'm looking for some recommendations for longer (multiipitch?) trad routes at the red. What are the best reasonably easy (<5.11) ones? The ones that I can think of are: Jungle beat (looked harder than a 9 from the ground), bonzo, roadside attraction, foxfire. Any other good ones or comments on the ones I've listed.

Thanks.

Brent

there is a nice one at Minas Tirith, Jungle Beat is definitely harder than a 9, but it is super cool. There is also the Quest at Middle Small Wall, Party Time at Fortress is also nice, Nevermore on Raven Rock is long with a little bit of route finding.

Diamond in the Crack is ***,Lorax Tree,Whiteout, Fortress and Eagle Point both have routes above routes,Nevermore has incredible exposure,but the crux is serious.I liked it alot anyway.And theres Big Country.Full Moon is stellar.

Duh <11 thanks CBP.

Hair of the Dog is sweet. WOD has some of my favorite 9's. It's worth the hike.
