A straightforward ascent of the Sinclair Glacier leads to Bandolero Col. From here, follow a broken 20-metre couloir, followed by a traverse around the northern side of a spire. If snow conditions are favourable, difficulties low down can be passed on the northern side of the ridge. Near the top of the ridge a short crack topped by a big chockstone can be tackled directly and leads to a couloir. The summit is a short distance further on.
