Trad climb on next wall down and left of existing routes (shortly right of the first gully/ trickle). At the lower/ left end of the wall, where the base is flattest, head up some intermittent cracks and commit to less obvious ground above. Some doubt, some dirt. Route has only been cleaned on lead; long black fur( à la telecom tower/cuz it's fuzzy) increases with height. Gear belay at a stance shortly below the top, on the low-angle arete between wall and gully (easy to scramble off to top from here). Length and grade...anyone's guess.
