  We measure a tilt of 86+-6 deg between the sky projections of the rotation
axis of the WASP-7 star, and the orbital axis of its close-in giant planet.
This measurement is based on observations of the Rossiter-McLaughlin (RM)
effect with the Planet Finder Spectrograph on the Magellan II telescope. The
result conforms with the previously noted pattern among hot-Jupiter hosts,
namely, that the hosts lacking thick convective envelopes have high
obliquities. Because the planet's trajectory crosses a wide range of stellar
latitudes, observations of the RM effect can in principle reveal the stellar
differential rotation profile; however, with the present data the signal of
differential rotation could not be detected. The host star is found to exhibit
radial-velocity noise (``stellar jitter') with an amplitude of ~30m/s over a
timescale of days.
