This constest is for the most Valley routes named after a single person.
I figure 'Werner's Wiggle' and 'Werner's Ant Trees' gives Werner Braun the prize.
No fair using double names (like Sacherer-Fredricks).
Salathe has one route, as does Muir.
But, Werner has two.
Anybody got more than two?

Why does Salathe only get one? There's a Salathe route on El Cap and one on Half Dome.

"hey riley - I thought the riley-yerian was pretty good too""
A really excellent route but it don't count cause of the dumb "shared" name rule

Isn't Werner's Wiggle in Tuolumne? Werner's Crack was in the Valley though...although I think it fell off.
I like "Riley's Sacker Cracher of the desert but in the valley"

Last count, 63 routes named after some "Poodle." That poodle has everyone else beat by a mile.
