How about the stoneman pinnacle near McHenry? Perhaps it is not a peak, but it sure is a prominent feature. It requires a short climb of low to mid 5th class difficulty. The descent will cost you a long sling.
I'll add Pacman when a photo comes around. I am a little leary though about some of those you gave me with a "5.0" rating. I'm willing to bet most of those are 4th class. Be honest, are there any you have done that just don't feel like 5th class? I come from the west coast where there is a YDS bias and I don't like the way Colorado and Wyoming use the YDS system. If Jagged mountain were in the Cascades no doubt it would be Class 3.
I completely agree with you about the YDS bias, having climbed in CA as well as CO. I would say all of these are 5th class based on the CO interpretation of the YDS. Except for the 3 peaks from the Garden of the Gods, I have climbed every peak that I have suggested you add to the list. Also, I believe you missed "The Needle". And Noodle should be spelled Noddle for North & South Noddle Heads.

The PalisadeAnother for the list. I believe it goes at 5.4.
Also, Squaretop (11,776') is a technical climb. 5.7?

South Noddle HeadGoes at 5.2. Not sure about North Noddle Head, but it isn't ranked, although it IS cool. I'll let you know when we get up it.

Re: Next batchNoodle vs Noddle LOL Selective reading I guess. Looks like I did forget The Needle...all these peaks starting with N are confusing ;)
Thanks again.
