West Ridge

This ridge provides an excellent access route between Harpers Rock and the area around Brunner Col. From Harpers Rock, ascend easy slopes of the broad lower ridge. Avoid a sharper section of the ridge between 2000m and 2140m by sidling on the north. Above 2200m, either stay on the crest of the ridge itself (straightforward snow and rock with some moderate slabs in late summer) or continue sidling on the north to access snowfields north of the summit, from where 150m of steep scrambling leads to the summit.
