It's probably worth mentioning that few routes in the Clear Creek area of Darrington remain unpublished and unknown any longer. Matt Perkins excellent website has done much good for D-Town but as he himself states, the page only details a few of the most popular climbs.
Matt has been gracious enough to provide a link to my guidebook Rattle & Slime on his Darrington page. There are over a hundred routes, a hundred color pics and pages and pages of topo's it took years to produce. Check it out if you enjoy climbing in Darrington!
Also for a less comprehensive overview there are 25 Darrington routes and topos in my guidebook Weekend Rock: Washington, availble anywhere carabiners are sold... and Jim's Selected Climbs II has some good info on a fewer number of Darrington favorites.
