Erik at the belay above the cleft pitch.
Topo of how we pitched out the route. First and last pitches in this photo are just snow climbing. Photo by Dougald MacDonald, with embellishments by me.

Jeff exiting the waterfall section - a tad damp.
Jeff leading the upper couloir (p4 as listed). A short overhang caps this section.
Jeff kicking steps up initial couloir.
The Cleft route breaks off from the couloir and takes a direct line through the notch above. This section had running water when we climbed it, but I'm sure earlier in the season it would be great mixed ground.
Erik ascending the final snow to the ridge top. Pitch 5.
