The West Bank / Wild West / Secret Crag has been problematic for years due to access concerns. There have been negative encounters with gun-toting landowners who have alleged that the entire mountain is on private property. Typical approaches involve brief crossing of railroad property which appears to be prohibited.

Description
The name for the route apparently comes from the tricky start which is either hard (5.9+) or harder (5.10c) with no protection. Luckily, the crux at the small roof at about 90' is better protected, but this is a serious route.
Location
This route follows the crack system between Don't Panic It's Organic and Beagle's Ear. To descend, you can do a short pitch up right to the top of the standard Mickey Mouse rappel route or rap off one of the neighboring routes.
