Description
NE of the main West World Wall, there are a few smaller towers as you get farther from the highway. From the parking/approach at the highway hike up the old road 175 yards and cut across the meadow aiming for the tower right or east of a gap between this and the towers closer to West World proper. From the base of the tower below the crack, scramble up and make a funky move to reach the bottom of the crack. Do the hardest move then use the crack to reach some boulders, a brief face climb and a wide crack to the top passing a smaller column top.
Location
The route is the fine looking crack on the western (left) edge of the Clearcut Tower. Hike to the base of the Tower and belay from a boulder just below the crack. Rap the route with a 60 M rope, or you can 4th/5th class scramble north across a couple smaller column tops to a notch. You can scramble down from the notch and walk back to the base of the climb. A rope is recommended for a scramble off.
