Gain Red Lion Col and then cross shingle and find a line through the bluffs in gullies on the County side. Above, long easier snow slopes lead up the ridge. The ridge then narrows, offering an exposed scramble on snow or very loose rock to the summit. This summit ridge (called the Southern Cornice in past accounts) can be tricky under snow, with significant cornices.
