I have a few:
Stockholm Syndrome
Frayed Ends of Sanity
Four walled world (it needs some work)
Butterflies and Hurricanes
Unnatural Selection (hmmm)

I'm not worthy.

I've been looking for a few months now for a new formation to call "The Old Man." I may have found it in October (but haven't had time to do routes there yet). Here are some of the names I've got planned:

-  Yur in Trouble

-  Get Offa My Lawn

-  The Old Man and the C (for the 5.10c route)

-  When I was Your Age

-  Damn Whippersnappers

-  Wait 'Til Your Father Gets Home

-  Go Ask Your Mother

Anyone here should feel free to add to the list (except The Kid; she's too young to have any idea what such "crusty-climber banter" would even be about).

I normally wait to see what the formation or route inspires.
The only one I have in reserve for Pinns is SeƱor Bentonite.

Five Easy Pieces - inspired by recent conversations - must have at least one spinner.

My older daughter Katie knows enough about the rock and the holds at Pinnacles that she came up with:

 Why, the connotation conjures ideas of a more modern, sinister sleeping beauty play. The transgender warlock turned witch creates this deadly fruit to collect life insurance from his  gorgeous ceo/govenor and soon to be ex wife. You could even audition for the star role F4.

Actually, a meta narrative of the origin of evil and knowledge comes together in that name.



Mostly it just reminded me of PO at Pinns.

Road apple would have been a good name for many a Pinns route, like the one JC lead yesterday called Subtle Slopes.

I found something Not So Subtle in the area.

Super Supple.
