I'm not super familiar with RRG, any trad areas that don't receive full sun all day? Temps this weekend are hot and humid in the mid to high 90's.

You should be able to find decent shade at Phantasia wall. Also, Left Flank you can find some shade too. Eastern Sky Bridge has quite a bit of trad routes, but I'm not sure of the shade there.

Pistol Ridge

+1 for Jewel Pinnacle. Diamond in the Crack is an awesome route.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. How does Long Wall fare during full sun?

if you want the most out of your trip I'd recommend shelling out some money and getting the guidebook, its one of the best ones out there and has the information you're looking for

Go to redriverclimbing.com and click on the online guide. You can find detailed sun/shade aspect for every crag.

Really appreciate the suggestions everyone. It's going to be muggy regardless of where I go!

The shire at pmrp. has 7/8/9/10a/10c and 10d all right next to each other and all in the shade all day.

Not trad though.
Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
