11d/12a personally. Ther are plenty of climbers way honed at placing gear, and it's no giant impediment to the grade for them, so sky's the limit.

Those gritstone routes are crazy! Hats off to you brits.
Squamish:
Sixty-Nine 5.13c R
a bunch of 13's

There are a least 2 routes in Squamish that will go in at 13d or higher. Andrew Boyd has been checking out Shallow Penetration. This thing will be crazy if it goes. It is rated A4 on aid. And Cobra Crack is going to be really hard. Cobra Crack is a real finger crack. I'm guessing it will go at 5.13d/14a.
