55m, 2 pitches.
A fine steep line up the west face, although avoids the direct line taken for the first pitch of March's Route. Start (as for March's Route) from the large washed platform about 5m left of the cave running through the stack there the initial overhangs guard access to the scoop and a right-trending ramp.
1. 30m 5a Climb the overhangs to a ledge and the hanging crack above to a ledge. Follow the prominent right-trending ramp line to capping roofs and move right and up to ledges to belay below the prominent central fault line up the upper face.
2. 25m 5a Climb the steep corner line to an exit on the left. The final overhanging wall circumnavigated on the left.
