Description Suggest change

A detached spire sits on the south end of king and queen's seat.
In the Horst guidebook for MD/VA/WV, this is also called "The Strawberry Jam Pillar".

There are four bolts atop the pillar for rappel/lower/TR anchors

Getting There Suggest change

Down from the main parking lot. Keep descending past the back of K+S seat and then you will see the spire. Routes to the west can be accessed by a 3rd class climb up into the gully.
