Best Sport Routes in Red Rock

Since winter is sport season in RR in my mind, I would like to know what people think are the top three/five (whatever number you like, heck give top ten if you have the time.) sport climbs in RR. (If you can remember if they get sun that would be cool.) I'm hoping people can point me to some routes I may not have thought of.

Here's my list (in no particular order)
1. Tour de Pump (12b) Sunny and Steep (sunny of course)
2. Soul Power (11d) James Brown Wall (shady)
3. The Trophy (12b/c) Trophy Wall
4. One Man's Kokopelli (12c) Cannabis Crag (sunny)
5. Caustic (11b) Cannibal (morning sun)

Not sure what the top five might be, but some of my favs:

Anything on Sunny and Steep
New Wave Hookers
Yaak Crack
Idiots Rule

Wow now I want to go back!

I like tons of routes here, but if I had to choose favorites, they'd be

Ambushed (13a)
Sound of Power (12c)
New Wave Hookers (12c)
Threadfin (12b/c)
Minstrel in the Gallery (12b)
Geometric Progression (12b)
Pain Check (12a)
Gimme Back my Bullets (12a)
Running Man (11d... if that counts as sport)

Too many to choose from... gah!

ManEater 5.12a, Cannibal Boulder. Sunny most of the day.
Rebel Without a Pause 5.11b, Black Corridor. Mostly in the shade
Foe 5.11a, Black Corridor, Shade
Under the Boardwalk 5.11a, The Pier, I think this gets sun
Keep Your Powder Dry, 5.12b, The Trophy, Sunny.

I just got back from 3 days of climbing at Red Rocks and can't wait to get back!

Personally I think "Keep Your Powder Dry" is better than the "Trophy"
Most anything on Sunny and Steep
Running Man
Marshall Amp
Stratocaster Direct
Monster Skank (very cold)
Geometric Progression

interesting, seems everyone sport climbing kills the 11's and 12's at Red Rocks... I've never been there, maybe grades are soft? just seems that way, unless everyone climbs harder out there.

Well, it is true that there are some softly graded sport routes here at some of the more popular crags. However, areas like the Wake Up Wall seem to be a bit more "real." I think that many of the steeper routes are overgraded, while many of the face routes tend to be a bit more in your face.
There are a lot of strong climbers out here, go up to Mt. Charleston in the summer and it seems like everyone in vegas climbs 5.13. Also in the grand scheme of things, 5.12 just isn't that hard for sport climbing.

thank you, that was most helpful.

My top 5's (Maybe there are better ones...but these stand out off the top of my head.)

12's
KGB 12A
Gimme' Back My Bullets 12A (or any of the 12-'s at Sunny and Steep)
Threadfin 12B/C
New Wave Hookers 12C
Fear and Loathing 12A

11's
Drilling Miss Daisy 11A (has some choss, but EXCELLENT moves)
Native Sun 11C
Synapse Collapse 11D (STEEP!)
Caustic 11B (Get the camera out!)
The Sweet Pain Wall (All of the 11's are fun!)

10's
Skid Mark 10A (or 5.9)
Cocopuss 10B
Sand Felipe 10A (long with a ton of bolts...but still cool!)
Idiot Parade 10C
The Heavy Hitter 10C

Wow, took a while before someone got around to mentioning Fear and Loathing.

nice list mike...

Does anybody know of any "unknown classics"? You know, routes that don't get the props that some of these mentioned so far do, but are still good?
