Midway up the left hand gully. This would clearly not be the case once the snow in all these gullies has melted out - May 2021

A view of the route I took on the East Face of Mills. Not sure I went the correct way, particularly at the top of the gully. My guess is that most folks take the right hand gully to start the route. I went left because the gully looked longer.
After some non-descript loose scrambling - at least in season - the final snow slope offers a very nice finish to the route - May 2021

The other option in exiting the left hand gully is to climb up and right (carefully) and find a way out onto the lower angle slopes above - May 2021
The aforementioned chimney exit from the left hand gully. I wish it had been simpler than it looks in this view. The angle is considerably steeper - May 2021
