Description
I would say this could be 5.8, except for a few thin slab moves that are pretty run-out.
This is a 2nd pitch to the great West crack, which had a 2nd pitch ( the inside corner, now very overgrown)
It starts up the layback corner, traverse left out onto the slab and stay mostly in the middle of it.
If you venture to far left you will be on the 2nd pitch of Hotshots which is also 5.9 and worth doing as well.
You will either fuss over a 50' run-out trying to place tiny cams and brass nuts like I did or just run it out till clipping bolts.
After the 8 bolts there is a water runnel crack that is wide but much easier.
Location
2nd tier level of Warrior Wall, starts at Metolius Rap hangers at top of West crack and Potato Chip flake.
Protection
Mostly the 8 bolts, standard rack of which you had on West Crack will do. Bolted anchor at the top, can rap down Prime Rib.
