33m. A superb, delicate pitch up the strip of rock just right of West Chimney. Climb straight up to the bottom of the chimney on the right, step left and climb the centre of the slab until forced left. Climb to a ledge leading back right to the centre of the slab; now trend left to a platform. Continue up or down West Chimney.

HG Knight and HM Kelly Apr/1928.
