Where to climb in the USA?

Hi, leaving out Yosemite, T. Meadows, J. Tree, Gunks, Senneca, Zion, Red Rocks, desert towers, Moab and Indian Creek, Lumpy Ridge, Flat Irons, The diamond, what might the top ten places to climb in the USA, please.

I'm after somewhere new for a holiday with a bunch of friends. Multi pitch would be good, with lots in the 5.6 to 5.10 range.

Thanks

southern Yosemite/shuteye ridge
Cochise in AZ

Bishop, Whitney Portal, SEKI, Southern Sierra, Dome Rock, The Needles, Tahquitz, Cochise... just throwing out some not on your list

If you are on the east coast, Seneca Rocks, WV is excellent! Shorter multi-pitch, easy camping, climbing shop and restaurant/general store all within a 5 minute walk of climbing with no cell service for miles in any direction. Plus, it is super historic - it's where the 10th mountain division trained to go kick some Nazi ass. Also, less than 3 hours from New River Gorge for more incredible climbing and you can raft/kayak the NRG and Gauley if the season is right (or BASE off the bridge if that's your thing).

Rushmore / Custer / Spearfish
Devil's Tower? never climbed there myself
City of Rocks
White Mtns/North Conway NH (Cathedral, Whitehorse, Cannon, & many others)

When is the holiday?

In Colorado you could check out the Black Canyon of the Gunnison, Eldorado Canyon, Elevenmile Canyon.

Tell it to JB Tribout, Marc Lemenestral, Patrick Edlinger, Catherine Destivelle et al that traveled to Smith for world class sport test pieces.

THE NEW

High quantity doesn't always mean quality. I could be wrong though considering I don't climb 5.13 and up. Smith isn't the only crag in the US to host a high concentration of difficult climbing anymore. All this said I love Smith but I wouldn't travel any further than a couple hours for it.....especially considering the crowds out there now.

Sometime between Easter and September, inclusive

A six-month holiday window sounds good.

Organ mountains

Since your preference was multi-pitch moderates.

City of Rocks in Idaho, Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons in Utah.

Best Granite moderate crack climbing in USA....The Needles (California) hands down. Igor Unchained may be the best route of its grade anywhere.

For super moderates: White Punks on Dope and Magic Dragon.

.Kentucky
& West Virginia
Smoke Hole Canyon & The New

Arkansas

&

Tennessee 

Edit:
Ty Falk said. . . . .  Lone Peak Cirque, LCC. . . .As if they were together, Other than being in Woot-ha, they are very different One, Lone Peak Cirque, is Alpine worth the trip with full packs for days,
While I know, A "fast & light" : -car to car  in a long day- is possible ( that has become so regular these days?type 2 fun,asking for it?)
& it seems to miss out on a lot,  Taking the time to adjust; going at a slower pace leaves the ability to fully appreciate the beauty of the alpine environment.
On the other hand is the classic day cragging in  fhe canyons, out side of Salt Lake City; Little Cottonwood Canyon, LCC, Big Cottonwood Canyon, BCC, & Logan are the perfect mix of all types of long day crag climbing.

A few of my favorites haven’t been mentioned. Anything in Grand Teton Nantional Park, Wind River Range, Lone Peak Cirque, LCC...

Whitehorse / Cathedral ledge in North Conway, NH. Not too far from Rumney if you want sport  and Cannon if you want something bigger and more alpine.
