Exactly what I thought of when I read the title of this thread. Balance of small holds to big overhanging moves on jugs to fun arete. Then you get to top it out for a great view. Now if I can only get the redpoint.
Second fav., Port Side HCR, Arkansas

Bullet the Bluye Sky, Penitente Canyon, CO because:
1) I climbed it
2) It's the only sport climb whose name I can remember.
3) It's beautiful

Split Image (12d) here at Smith:
1. The perfect arete; techy, balancey, anti-gravity moves.
2. It's an old school Alan Watts climb- scary groundfall potential!
3. Beautiful setting on the backside; no crowds.
4. It's almost impossible to describe the beta (sorry jug-haulers!)

St. Pauli Girl at Bubba City NRG.
It has good variety on the route, and just feels great!

Banshee, .11c, Solarium, Muir Valley, Red River Gorge--long over hung climbing between two amazing rests on orange and black rock. amazing views down muir valley. Three distinct 35-40 foot sections. The first is powerful, almost thugish climbing, followed by the long technical crux on pockets and a sloper and finishing on some of the best jug hauling the gorge has to offer.

Oh, oh, oh, I love that route. It's so beautiful and technical.
I also dig Masterpiece (5.10a) which is also at Rumney. Just a fun, overhanging route which has beautiful scenery when you get to the top.

Another vote for Vomit Launch (11.b), Smith. It's even one of the only pics in my profile! What a great climb. A little bit of everything up an amazing face.

The Return of Chris Snyder (5.11d), Roadside Crag, RRG. 30 feet of techy slab, no-hands rest, pull a roof, then 60 feet of overhanging jugs with a lay-down rest near the top. Heaven!

I'm also throwing a vote in for Flying Hawaiian (5.11b) at Rumney and adding Apocalypse Later (5.11c), both have great mixed styles of climbing and are always fun to get on.
Honorable mention goes to Man With the Hueco in His Tights (5.11b), a short but fun route on which I used every climbing moving I know except an arm-bar.

I'm psyched at all the Rumney routes popping up in this..
Peer pressure.. awesome.
Man with Hueco.. took me like 5 tries of allllmost getting it to finally send.. good stuff.
Obi Won Ryobi .9 great as either a warm up for harder stuff or project for newer climbers.. fun jugs to cool slabs
