40m. Memorable climbing up the steep chimney on the right side of the large tapering pillar. Ascend the widening crack "with considerable interest" to belay on top of the pillar. Reasonably protected due to small cracks in the right wall. Quite clean after an ascent in late July 2014. Originally named Kilt Classic.
