Does anyone have good recommendation for some 5.5 - 5.7 trad routes with G ratings? I scan a few of them on this site, but most of them don't have a real rating on it.

Thanks.

I dont think I would call bunk arete a G. It probably goes PG to PG13. The upper sections are pretty bare for gear.

Agreed. If you fall from the sandbagged crux, you'll definitely hit the ledge.

A lot of P-Kill routes are too short to be a decent lead. From that list I recommend Cool Hand Luke, Reach Around and Skink.
Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
