Sunny times?

Hello Red Rock locals,
I've been down a couple times in October and had fun in and out of the sun but now I'm coming down the first week of March. I live in Alaska so I'm specifically looking for sunny times as it is such a rare thing to be treated to here. I know about the Brownstone Wall, Brass Wall, also hoping Jubilant Song is sunny etc. But are there others? I'm not just talking about 'AM sun' or 'couple hours around 11am sun' and things like that...I'm wanting ALL DAY SUN if possible. Looking for multi pitch 5.8-5.10. Thanks for any info. Hope temps continue to climb...

Appreciate the help guys. I may still be a newcomer when it comes to RR, two prior trips is all, but I love it there. I hope to be baked off some climbs. Dry and warm are the motivating factors and I've never been disappointed by Vegas yet!
