A bunch of climbs I'd love to do. Some realistic, some not. (You be the judge... :) Influenced by various guidebooks I've been able to lay my hands on, undoubtedly, and by my desire to climb things so big that the mind trembles at the very idea...
Ambition is important; it's what keeps a climber motivated.
