As an old geezer (I was 69 when I led it) I vote for Such a Savage.
It is only 11a.
The 11a is only one move.
A bolt is at your waist.
Plus it is face climbing at which I have always been a little better.

O'Kelly's Crack (better than Wangerbanger, IMO) and, yes, it is 5.11
Lots of other good ones too.

Thanks for the route recommendations, I'll have to make the trek up to Queen Mt this year. I always preferred the face routes and White Rain sounds like a classic.

Pack light, it's a HONK of a hike up to Queen Mountain.

Do Perfect Fingers while you're up there. I thought that was excellent.

I went up to the "underground" area on queen with a gallon of water and two crashpads.

White Rain is really good and worth the hike.There is a ton of quality routes around QM and no crowds if you are willing to hoof it. Please go low impact though. It is beautiful around there.

For sure! I'm going to be heading back there quite a bit this season. SO MUCH ROCK! The location is one of the coolest in the park as well (great for a 'hang')
