The North Face is a short rock climb from the Volta Névé. The hardest pitches occur on sound rock leading out of the windscoop surrounding the peak and into the east side of a shallow gully. After 30–50m cross to the west side of this gully and climb out to the ridge, where easy loose rock leads to the summit. Time from the névé to the summit is 1–2 hours.
