Wheels on Fire climbs the crack until the obvious traverse left and then up the left facing flake. Direct avoids the traverse and hits it's own left-facing flake.

A better shot of Mikey at the end of the traverse...I know a few folks who have fallen from here and swung back into the flake/crack...resulting in hurt ankles, etc. I think its because they tried to place gear before moving all the way into the crack.

Mike Buchannan living in the wrong era!
Wheels as seen from up canyon. Final dihedral is surprisingly long. Exit the crack climber's right onto the face 10 feet before the top to find the chains.
