E3. A harder alternative to The E.L. Pillar with a bold first pitch.
1) 6b, 25m. Start as for The E.L. Pillar. From the recess break right up the thinner left-slanting crack. When it fades climb the bold slab until it re-emerges. Follow this to the belay.
2) 6b, 25m. Move out right to a shallow groove (thread). Continue to a thin crack above until this joins The E.L. Pillar.
Finish up this.
