Posted up a prior discussion on Russ's site...

Did I get that list from the Taco originally? had to have been.

Is Chingando the only one that gets designated in the reid guide?

Robert,

That list and comments were originally by Bruce Bailey (aka Dr. OW), posted to rec.climbing in 1992, and extended by Russ later.

There is a more extended version at:

We all had this discussion about five years ago. I can't find the thread right now. Anyway, I made a little book of OW for myself, which I was going to work through. Here's a pic of the cover. The topos inside are all from Reid's.
Real life got in the way and I misplaced this little book until now but I did manage to get to, or at least get on, a few of these; Secret Storm, Moby Dick Left, Cookie Center, Lost Arrow Chimney, Doggie Do and Ahab. Looks like I have this years climbing laid out for me!

Death crack has next to no ow on it. The hard part is more fist as I remember. River crack is pretty dang hard for a short little thing. Steppin out is the real deal. I wish I had got on twilight zone but never did. Most of the list are pretty good climbs, but the last pitch of reeds is also a good little 10a ow at the top.

Top rope the hell out of Generator Crack, start left side in and eventually do it right side in....the best OW training for the buck.

Made me think of Brutus' old rec.climbing post:

"I've seen 5.11 divided into 11 different grades of increasing
difficulty, as follows:

5.11a 5.10d 5.11- 5.11b 5.11 5.11c 5.9 squeeze 5.11+ 5.10 OW 5.12a 5.11d"
