Standard rack nothing special go get it.

The crux pin can be backed up with a #0.4. Tricams were helpful, but don't learn how to place them up there...

Reading through the comments section, sounds like a red alien sized piece is helpful in the chimney.

Just below the chimney (pitch 4?) I'm pretty sure a red alien or orange Metolius with a runner keeps the crux sane...the placement is to the left- it just feels like a high left hand sidepull if I remember correctly-  It was kinda blind and was easy for me to miss. This is the only "key" gear I remember.

This old fart remembers the first time he climbed the Naked Edge in the late ‘70’s. There were so many fixed pins that I only placed three pieces of pro. 

Bring some larger RPs.  Very handy moving around the corner towards the belay on the second pitch.  

P1: #1, .2, .5
P2: 3 quickdraws
P3: 2 quickdraws, .3/.4 offset
P4: .75, quickdraw, .2/.3 offset, quickdraw, alpine draw
P5: quickdraw, .4, quickdraw, #2

Or just bring a double rack from .2-2, optional #3 for handcrack if you're not solid on that size and about 5 quickdraws and 3 alpine!

Standard eldo rack + offset BD x4 .2/.3 (or whatever brand you like) to back up the pin on P4

Oh that pin.....

Makes u pucker....
