This route follows a series of good rock slabs, with two pitches up to grade 14, on the prominent rock rib rising out of the South Cameron Glacier. Climb the second buttress, avoiding the toe of the ridge, and top out on the main outlying peak on the East Ridge. This route provides good access to the best (final) part of the East Ridge.
