This winter is about OW's. Have done some but need some tips from OW lovers as to what we haven't hit yet.
Suggestions appreciated.

I don't care for OW too much, but Fisticuffs was pretty good.

Jumar of Flesh and the 10b next to it are good and on the very do-able side. Honestly, if you like OW's, they are all good! :)

I'm cracking the book, but Russ' route beta database over on the fetish was created for this!

Take a break from Cali and come to Indian Creek in April for a choice selection of OW cracks that are not flesh eaters.

Good suggestion, you like Moab, Beth. And take that ginormous tube!
I'm hoping to be out there this spring...
The damper, Mike's Books and Waterchute all have moderate moves susceptible to the wyde touch.
Oh, and Vedauwoo is The best place is in the western US, possibly anywhere, to move incrementally through the wide grades. Took me from Zero to generator crack in one season!

Apparently Where Janitors Dare is an offwidth, albeit 5.7. The Snatch, in Echo Cove, seemed somewhat offwidthy (5.10a).

Andres, that's our OW warm up climb (Janitors).
And yes Jay, he's enough OW obsessed that you may see us there this summer. Hell. I'm getting that obsessed with them now.

17hrs each way from from the bay area. I just did SLC in 10.5.
I have beta where you can stop in SLC.

My favorite in Josh (only because it's the hardest offwidth I've done there and the effort nearly killed me) is Comfortably Numb. There are others that are much harder of course, but I only had "the sickness" for a short while before my friends staged an intervention and helped me realize what I was doing to myself...
