From Gardiner Hut via Baker Saddle follow the snow arête until it runs out below icecliffs (beware of ice avalanches). Climb the rock buttresses to the left of the cliffs on sound rock or early in the summer follow an ice gully. Then following the winding arête to the summit. A dangerous route if the icecliffs are active.
