Type:
Alpine
Description:
Ascend a weakness through the rock band below
the large snowfield, then up to the Main Divide
south of The Footstool. There is a variation that
links snowfields to the right of the rock band.
This is a good alternative to the Couloir Route if
the bergschrund conditions are not favourable.
During late summer, snow can be completely
absent from this face, and the rock is not
worth climbing!
