Interested in hearing about any awesome/epic link-ups people have done or would like to do. Trad or sport, single or multipitch climbs and all grades are welcome. No real guidelines other than that logistics have to make since for one day. I'll start:

Eldo:
Long John Wall to Ruper to Rewritten
Great way to get in a good amount of moderate climbing on classic routes. Hike over to the West ridge, start up Long John Wall and top out. Great view of Redgarden by the way. Hike over and down to what I call the back door to the lower ramp and scramble to the base of Ruper and climb away. Rap the vertigo rappels and walk over to Rewritten. Good day!

Boulder Canyon:
I actually got this one from Mountain Project. Climb Bitty Buttress then hike west to Blob rock and climb The Young and The Rackless. Great setting and views!

The Barb and Sykes Sickle. The barb can be done in 3 pitches with some simulclimbing at the 5.8 level. Great long day.
