Ill be heading up there in a few weeks and I'm lookin to nab my first 12. Any ideas on what to try. I was looking for a route that is soft for a 12, but still fun. I've already gotten suggestions from friends to got on tobacco road, narcissus, and reckless abandon. Any other beta would be greatly appreciated!

Narcissus at the Lake is fantastic. Fly Girls is easy. Baby Rage and Pockets of Resistance are fun.

Backlash at Beauty Mountain is another feel-good 12a.

Freaky is a popular 12a at Endless. Close to the Fern Point ladders. There is a good 10b warm-up around the corner (exoduster) as well. And yes, the last 'e' on the end was not a typo.

In regards to Freaky Stylee and the OP, my question is: How awesome is your lead head?? I'm guessing this wouldn't be the best first 12a for you... hah What a fun route though, mental as shit! (at least for me)
