2 pitches from ledge
First, the West Chimney was a chossy, blocky, uncomfortable climb for me. Most of the rock was not solid and I didn't trust it to hold gear; even if gear held, you'd still land on a ledge before it caught you. Ugh. I hated leading that part of the climb.
Anyway, above the ledge I can't imagine needing more than 2 pitches to finish the climb - one pitch to the second set of trees that you come to, and a second to reach the summit. Neither felt like rope stretching pitches and all of the moves were reasonable/easy. Stepping onto the summit is really incredible!
