25m, 2 pitches.
The obvious pillar of blocks in the centre of the bay between the Arete and the other Northeast corner routes. Scramble up to the base of the pillar then climb the front, right hand side of the pillar using the obvious curving crack for protection. Once surmounted head left through some shrubs to the next pillar and climb this up the front to avoid the worst of the loose rock. Belay from atop these blocks using the tree and crack for anchors. Finish by scrambling up to the top above or better and safer, traverse left to below the rock catch fence and either ab off or climb the second pitch of the Arete.

βeta: Dislodged quite a lot of loose rock from the top section of the pillar and took a fall... the top and possibly all of this route is probably still exposed to loose rock so be careful or preferably avoid. | βeta? | |
