Coming up P3 just below the summit. The original route finishes 30ft to climber's right where the chains, are but this is much better.

The summit pitch - this differs from the other photo of supposedly same pitch. This one has a piton, matches the description, and has a nice 5.8 bulge for 6 feet (#4 Camalot), then easy to the summit.
The scree pitch.
