In an effort to pump some juice into this thread, I got on these two gems in the valley this weekend,... both simply amazing (and hard) corners. Any guesses...

The second is bircheff-williams?
Wish I had a picture to add from our too rough attempt on mental block this weekend. Unfortunately struggling precludes photography.

BFK man, this thread kicks ass in large part because you've done a hell of a job curating it. Nicely done!
So what are the two in your pics above??

Thanks Le Bruce, my favorite part of this thread is getting to add a bunch of new routes to the tick list (dragon tooth just made it!)
Benkraft,... sooooo close man. It's actually P2 of Moratorium as we rapped the route (we didn't to P4). That route is amazing! One of the best and not scary at all (... unless I suppose you were trying to OS free solo it :-)

Is it just me or do some of these corner routes mess with your perspective? Makes for interesting photography.
For example, this one posted by FortMental looks like the climber is crawling on a ledge, especially with the rocks and the dude with the orange helmet in the background.
Cool photos all around!

Pretty rad that Western Front got repped- one of the best 5.10 corners in the range no doubt
This pic is looking down the corner- with a keen eye you can see my partner about 170 feet below
I'm pretty surprised no entries for Sunspot yet
