I took this list as ONE PITCH CLIMBS.....
But if we are going to just start listing great pitches thats a whole diff deal....
And look at the PIC of Atlantis that GOBI posted.... good example of how good climbs get messed up by added bolts.
The bolts the dude is belaying from was never the belay back when Atlantis was a new climb. The dude falling is doing it without to much rope in the system, as you can see.
The original Atlantis had the belayer sitting down about 15/20 feet lower, on gear, the bolt was to protect the lean out move.....
...OH well.

I'd have to agreee with the last pitch of the Third Pillar. Simply awesome.
Also, i was considering Candyland too. Just so unique. There are also a couple of pitches of The Wasteland, at Cochise, that are really spectacular.

Walt Bailey Memorial on Devils Tower is the only one pitch route on the tower and is a great crack to boot. First pitch of Mean Green and second pitch of High on Boulder in Cody. Second pitch of Rubyatt in the needles is a beautiful one.

The last pitch on Steeple is a great pitch of 5.8. After doing two pitches through a huge chimney you come out at the top right side on a 200+ foot leaning block and you then have a full pitch of 5.8 with a 1000ft of exposure to go to get to the summit of one of the few fifth class summits in the Winds.
