The Bill Robins memorial route. Seems appropriate for Bill, since he was sort of a rebel trad climber, and also because it is wide and chossy, both of which Bill was great at climbing. Bill was quite the fixture at these crags from around the mid 2000's going back to the 80's. I know I saw him in the 90's in his desert camo outfit of painter pants, long sleeve white shirt and desert sun hat. Same oufit in the early 2000's, and usually soloing some crack. I watched him solo George and Martha and Air Guitar- first time I had seen anyone solo something so steep.Quite a few crack routes were done by him first ascent onsight free solo.

My favorite Bill memory is him standing mid King Pins area peeing right on the trail, either did not care or liked showing it off.

Classic Vantage sport climbing--slopey, barn-door climbing brings you to more pumpy gas pocket pulling up high

A really fun climb, interesting getting up to 2nd bolt.

A couple of fist jams off the deck lead into more grungy, wider crack climbing.  Roughly midway up the wall, begin a rising traverse leftward across the face and past bolts to the chains.

A slightly out-of-character beginning shifts quickly to a fun jug haul

A standard Vantage crux down low yields to easier climbing on the face above.

Crux getting of the ground a big bouldery reach. Jug it out to the top. Fun and low commitment route to break into 10's

mixed route, bolts and cams. traverses a bit left toward Osama crack.

A tricky start on crimps with a high-step gets you to the second clip and much easier climbing to the anchor.  Perhaps the first move is 5.10d as the guidebook suggests, but the rest is low 5.10 or 5.9.

Start in an open book feature to a somewhat high second bolt on good rock with decent holds.  Things get a little more thin from here and the third bolt is pretty far up there.  Pitching here while clipping would leave you pretty close to the ground.  Keep your head about you and continue up, then over left and finish as for Mortal Memory Magnet.
