Description 

Great line!

Go past all the lower routes and keep going up hill. From Occupied Territory (13a with an obvious dihedral start), continue past 5 or 6 lines up hill until you come to a 100 foot piece of stone with a hueco-loaded line going right up the middle.

This line is Wild Wild West.

The crux comes early and is not straightforward. I found that the way you attack it changes the grade significantly. After getting through this difficulty, there are several other 11 to 11+ moves as you work to the anchors.

Great continuity and spectacular rock!

I'll second three stars for this fine half rope of excellent stone. Tricky tol start, but very continuous throughout. Huecos were a bit sandy last time I was up here.

super good route, the stone quality is awesome and i like the sustained climbing. the huecos were awesome and some of the cooler holds i have seen in the boulder area.
