What dries fast in the Valley?

Any reccomendations for moderate routes (5.7 to 10a) in Yosemite that dry out fairly fast after rain/snow?  Do they?  I'm going to be visiting the area anyway, so was hoping to get out Sunday and Monday if I can find a partner.  I live in Washington and here we usually bolt to the mountains anytime the rain pauses.  Don't know if that is realistic in Yosemite, but high 40s sound like awsome send temps to me!

Check the down canyon crags, lots of options, but knob hill may be the place to get a feel for the lower Merced canyon

There's stuff on the North side of the valley proper, maybe worth a look at Sunnyside bench for one day, but imho down canyon is where you want to be

Manure pile, pinnacles, pat and jack. Maybe those? Pat and Jack is my normal day after rain crag. Might see you there tomorrow.
