The climbs from left to right are:

Devotion (actually part of Pride Enclave but is right next to these)
Just Shut Up and Send It
The Hidalgo Strangler
Slam Hound
OCS
Leisure Suit
Deep Shag
Army in Your Panties.

Note - as of 2009 this section had very little traffic with no distinct trail and overgrown routes. With the addition of Just Shut Up, Strangler and Slam Hound, significant cleaning was done and a new trail cut in (thanks to Simeon, Rick and Jake) although the other routes were not cleaned and may have some cacti in the way.
