Let's see it. Post up, if you dare, photos of an area or route that appears virgin, and that you intend to de-virginize.
That's all I want to share for now. Others, please tempt fate and brag too about your delusions of grandeur and designs upon the landscape.

Locker, if that crack is virgin, I am sober as a nun.
Good luck though, and be sure to place ample protection.

Oregon or Washington? Or is even that general information classified top secret?

A question. I have posted multiple signed letters waiving liability and requesting access to the (absentee) landowners of record for this formation.
Shall I continue my tresspass triumph of new routing and stay bold when the neighbors arrive with a shotgun? Shall I bring a signed waiver to shove in their face? Should I do it at night with a horsemask and a red lens head torch?
Shall I say, "I am so very sorry Charlie"? after brrrraappppp--braappppidity-brappping my way back down off the summit block?
It is a kinda tender situation.

Go to Mali Africa. There are 100,000 or more new routes to do.
Big walls everywhere for 100's of miles too.
There's a photo on the front cover of one of those climbing magazines of me and Kuak going over some huge ass roof on one of those smaller walls.
Why were going over this roof?
Because it was in the way ........:-)

The soul is willing, I am just hoping that the flesh is not too weak.
Am composing a TR for adventures into this place,
but also hoping to go back with a rope 'n rack 'n
easily hoodwinked partner. More to come (I hope).

Well now that that Duck and SLR have spilled the beans on that little area called the Sahara....
ND, you've got some nice looking goodies!
I have a line on a couple of strong back/weak mind new routistas in this neck of the woods...and I'd love to talk ephemeral desert creeks, as well as getting paid to hike/map minerals out in the hinterlands...

That was a big roof in Mali Africa on that tower.
It was only 120 degrees that day in the sun.
Not too bad, rolls eyes.
Me and Kauk climbed that stoopid thing hauling a ton of camera gear up to the top for a movie on NBC back then.
We ran out of water and me and Ron were hallucinating all kinds of cold drinks in front of us and seeing A&W rootbeer stands out in the desert there, lol.
Man were we ever fuked up there ......

That roof in bravecowboy’s cover shot hosts a route called “Vuelva Usted Manana” (roof part is A0) – it’s on the south ridge of a tower called Kaga Tondo. When we tried it two years ago, it wasn’t the heat but the 100km/h wind gusts. A mini ambiance video:

Bailing off with 35 meters of ropes suspended horizontally

TBC, what did you call the formation in that first pic? I propose "Down Petticoats"
And if people ask you why, just say you first visited in the winter and you were cold, wishing you had some.

I think you old (er) guys are funny. But I dunno howta splain it. (I do not understand what you are saying/joking).
If you mean levels of difficulty amongst chossminers, then I would suggest that you try and touch - I mean even , halfway try and touch - the megamahedral.
