So I'm heading up to the sushi fest tomorrow. I was all psyched about a handful of multi pitch routes (Ewephoria & The Peacemaker), but I just found out they are on the West side, apparently an hour and half drive from East Cochise. Sucks because they seemed super classic, sunny, relatively safe and with easy approaches.
What are some good multi pitch routes (between 5.7 and 5.10) on the EAST side of Cochise that would be good for first trip, i.e not likely to epic just getting to the base, preferably no crazy X rated runouts. I REALLY need to climb multi pitch on this trip as the idea of a 10 hour drive to climb single pitch sport routes makes me want to scream.
Any suggestions much appreciated!

So many!
Wasteland, Forest Lawn to Pair-a-Grins, Bee Line, Cap'n Pissgums (bwahaha), all sorts of bolted newer stuff, What's My Line, Days of Future Passed, Winter of Our Discontent, Aribba Amigos...on and on. You'll have a blast.

Most of that list is on the West side if I'm not mistaken.
The Wasteland is AWESOME. Best 5.8 I've done in the state. Amoebas Arribas is supposed to be good. Wish I could remember more but it's been a while.

Nope, east side. Unless they've moved things around since my last visit..
Fat Dad got the right name for arribas- it's amoebas not amigos..

I just saw online that the drive from East to West Cochise is only about an hour. That's not as bad as I had heard. Seems like it would be feasible to get up an hour earlier and drive over to Peacemaker in the morning, right?

Cole - Call me later this evening. I'll give you all kinsds of great beta.
Some good suggestions:
Wasteland- 5.8 and really amazing wandering up vertical chickenhead studded bulges.
What's My Line - kind of like Saddle Rocks in JTree. Fun!
Days Of Future Passed - 5.10 great cracks lead to a heads up 5.9 face to a spectacular summit
End Game - 5.10 a knobs & plates
