A relatively straightforward route involving 200m of snow, a 70m leftward traverse, and then a couloir to the summit ridge. Bill Denz commented it was one of the best and quickest ways up or down Torres. A good descent route, usually involving two abseils and downclimbing. The first party on the route used it as a descent.
