Description
A great Class 3 route, with a spectacular and intimidating finish.
Scramble up the chute, over blocks then tackle a chimney with a chockstone which is best passed on the right, then traverse northwards along the ridge until you are stopped by the smooth wall just below the summit.
The smooth wall can be traversed diagonally leftward along a foot ledge to a wide crack, then up this to the summit.
