The first sketchy drop off to the left on the walk off.
Full route overview of Wolf Rock's SE Face, showing Morgul Vale (5.9+, PG-13, white line on left) and Barad Dur (5.11a/b, yellow line on right). Base photo courtesy of Tyler Adams.
Once you see the Great Arch, you are basically at a wide pullout on the left. The climbers trail is on the Easternmost edge of the wide pullout. Climber is at the trail entrance. Read my comment for detailed explanation

6th pitch anchors seen from the new route 7b pitch anchors. Traditional route goes around the right corner and up a chossy slope. Eye of Sauron watching over us through the wildfire smoke

This is looking toward the summit ridge from just past the top of P10b anchors. <br> <br> EDIT: Follow the ridge on the skyline and there are two bolts to clip on the way on the steepest parts.
