Description Suggest change

This route climbs the center of the northwest face, staying right of the north rib and left of the west pillar. It was the first technical route on the peak to be established, more than thirty years after the first recorded ascent of the mountain. It climbs ramps, separated by steeper walls, and zigzags to follow the line of weakness.

Location Suggest change

Follow the normal scrambling route up Slesse as far as the traverse out onto ledges near the top of the North Couloir, then head straight up from these ledges.

Protection Suggest change

Standard rack to 4"
