Description Suggest change

The route name could also by the "Quickest Drill". Traverse left from the Cowboy Boot Crack ledge to the leftmost line of bolts. It is a long exposed traverse with zero protection. Once you clip the first hanger, head up. The crux is just above the second bolt. It is a balancy step up. Commit to it, clip the third bolt and get to the anchors. This can be top-roped (like Trigger Finger and Cowboy Boot Crack) from the large ledge, barely. The belayer should tie a knot in the end of your rope (as always) and be prepared to step up the rock a bit.

Addendum: follow the first 2 or so pins on Trigger Finger. When TF goes straight up, you can follow Fastest Drill to the left. It shares the same anchors as Unzipped. They are kind of left of center at the bottom of the dome (about even with the climber's feet in the Trigger Finger pic).

Protection Suggest change

5 QDs for 5 bolts/pins plus two anchor pins (all of them solid).

The anchor pins have been replaced with 2 large bolts.
