McYetta's Loaf is a small Valley of the Gods tower whose biggest claim to fame is that its the farthest one from the loop road. Tucked behind Hidden Tower, it only pops into view after a couple miles of hiking.
Cam Burns made the first ascent of the only established two pitch route to the top in 1999, installing a top notch bolt ladder to the well guarded summit. The first pitch of Plaid Skirted School Girls is 5.8 free climbing on ok rock. The second starts with C1 aid up a widening crack and ends with a long, friendly bolt ladder. It felt pretty casual and might make a good intro to VOG towers actually.
