Located on
Climb two pitches up the big snow ramp on the SW aspect to the ridge (about
50-60-degrees alpine ice but likely conditions dependent). Travel eastwards
along the ridge toward the summit for about one rope length. There can be a
short, very narrow and exposed section near the summit where care will need
to be taken. From here is less than a full rope length to the summit, from
memory.
Descend via the north side, 4 abseils from memory, possibly 5. Be aware of
the 'schrund when returning to the neve.
Excellent intro route to the area for progressing mountaineers. A fun half
day out.
