My favorite problem ever involves integrating the secant cubed.

These should show up once they get approved.
I really liked this one. It's perfect.

"Life Without Parole" it's not the best, hardest, funnest, most asthetic, or good of the problems I do. It was however the beginning of what has become a long and beautiful journey down the road less traveled. Without "Life Without Parole" it's safe to say that I would not be the climber I am. http://www.rockclimbing.com/...p.cgi?Detailed=78269

Nobody Here Gets Out Alive, Hueco Tanks

Just got back from Hueco, and this problem enthralled me, very techy moves on good holds, and only a V2. Double foot-cam, heel hooks, knee bar, and a rather sketchy mantle are just a bit this problem had to offer for me.

Every GOOD problem has its own little "something-something" that makes it unique and interesting. Cool moves or holds, great lines, neat features....

Super Sharp Shooter in the Niagara Glen. I've done harder problems, and I've done better quality problems, but this one has a special place in my heart and I have no idea why.

Genesis, At HP40 is i think a v4 and only a 3 move problem but is great. just to sit back and look at it, it was meant to be climbed. Phantom arete, at a little crop of boulders on top of cloudland mt is another fav. Its a huge arete with tricky moves all the.

I second the Gunsmoke Traverse in Jtree. It is long, sustained and fun.

my favorite problem is trying to figure out how to climb as much as possible in as many places as possible, whilst working as little as possible, and not dying of starvation.
