well, if fifty is the goal........

what are the fifty best problems V5 and over?

the thing is, you have to have climbed them, and they have to be worth the effort.

boulderjunkie made a good start.

Not V5 and over, v5 - v7.

I don't think there are 50 in that grade that you could really identify without adding in a bunch of obscure ones that may or may not really exist. No point going beyond V9 problems in a list that long anyway since only a couple of people could climb them.

who would of thought that the majority of good problems in the canyon are between V0 and V5?

is that for real?

can't be possible.

The journey and Dem Come are both pretty kickass.

and I think the majority of really classic problems in the canyon end up with either a V4 if they're hard or a V8 if they're really hard.
