Don't mess with the toughest gang in town. Start very low with your fingers stuffed in pockets. Find some feet, throw up to slopey dish, then make powerful moves through two squarish pockets. Topout.

Cornerstone

Improbably tall with great jugs the entire way. Many variations of different heights are possible. The proudest line starts on the right corner and goes up across the face to top out at the peak of the overhang. Starting from the ledge is shorter, but still quite tall. 

  Another start would be around the corner on a fat jug rail. This would add another 10-15 feet of jugs.

The beginning of this problem has changed. The right hand cobble seen in the picture to the right has broken off. The new start may make it into the v6 range, but with the majority of moves being the same I've decided not to change it. 

  Starts low crimping left on a shallow dish and right in either a sharp pocket or a sloping one, your choice. Go right to a pointy cobble, and left up to a very sharp pocket (Crux). Use a right hand crimp to move up left to an awesome pinch, top-out.

On the short, overhanging backside of the Pyramid, start matched in a rugby-ball shaped pocket. Choosing between many small hands and many good feet, make powerful moves up to two good pockets, then up to two good cobbles and topout. Short problem, but overhangs about 45 degrees.

Overhanging south arete on backside of Pyramid. Start sitting with R in pocket on the face, L on arete. Bump hands up through good holds, then make a dynamic move to the lip.

Tall overhanging face covered with bowling-ball like cobbles and pockets on one side, a 6 foot tall overhang on the other side. The rock has the look of dirt, but usually turns out to be cement-hard.
