You can spot the W even in the star light.  Head up chute to left.  Does not look this obvious from lower down.

Comments: Bring four cams. A 0.5 for the crack 15 feet off the ground. You'll use a 2 and 3 for the "chimney" and a 1 to back up the anchor on p1. You'll reuse the 3 for your only piece just below the summit. I wouldn't consider taking more than this in the future.

Comments: Double set to four. No anchor on top of first pitch but easy to make with a c4 #3 and #4. Fixed hex is still there high up. New piece of rope added to anchor on 4/13.

Comments: One seventy gets you down in two raps, may work with a sixty with a bit of easy dc'ing. No need to bring a six, but double up on BD fours.

Comments: I have a fixed #6 on P2 of the North Chimney. I'd be super
stoked (obviously) to get it back. I'll can reward you in some
lesser fashion.
