Start right of the prow of the prominent buttress. Easy angled climbing leads up right into a corner and deep ugly gully. A crux near the top of the gully (two possible options, both grade 17) is followed by 200m of scrambling to the summit.

The route is left of the prow as you look up at it. I think the reason it has been described as right of the prow because it means trampers right ie climbers left
