Ascend the snow slopes under the West Ridge and up in to a narrow couloir to the right of a prominent rock buttress. Where the couloir ends, climb the mixed rock and snowface to the summit. (Routes have been descended on the left of the face, but this is not a good idea.) Winter ascent 28/8/14 Stepped left at the top of the Couloir and ascended snow slopes to the summit ridge. Variation on new ground.
