(I guess new school would mean at least color and fairly recent.)
Here is a couple by our own AlDude to get it going. These are from a couple of days ago. Feel free to guess the route and the climber(s)
These are from a couple of days ago:
Here is a snapshot I took from last weekend.

Russ - You the Man! Now I can actually put up some of the pictures I took, even though they are nowhere near the type of stuff you guys are capable of.
That second photo looks incredible!!! I can't wait to find out where/what the line is(heheheeee....maybe Locker will lead it for me next trip. what is it some 5.12?)

1st Russ Shot - Perhaps...Patagonia Pile, by Fillet of Rock Sole?
2nd Russ Shot - Thinking.. Miles of Piles, Winds of Whoopee?
3rd Russ Shot - agree Echo, Run Stuff
Last Russ Shot - RHV, Saturday Night Live
Ahhhh!!! think i figured the black n' white shot. Echo Face - Double Dip. The fact that it was a child climbing threw it off.

This was a guy camping near my last December, sending a problem at campsite #23.
Guess the problem(I'm joking)......Same guy, and after several attempts, he got to the top.

Russ,
Not too sure on the Winds one, but lets see what others guess.
Might have a new one for your OW circuit. Not very long, but those that know about such things say about .11c. Fairly far from the beaten path, and it needed more than the paltry single #5 I brought.
Will have to give the lead another go when the wounds heal ( more pics to follow ).

Kris,
Ahhhh... obvious in retrospect. Plus there's been other shots from Aldude on that same wall.
