To the left of the Skraeling (and Heyerdahl) are two obvious deep groove come gully lines. This route takes the right groove (the left is Sleipnir III, 5) and follows a fairly direct line above.
1. 30m. Climb the deep groove, passing a bulge to reach easier ground. Belay at the foot of an obvious very narrow chimney slot in a snow bay.
2. 40m. Climb the narrow V- chimney above and follow a turfy groove aiming for an overhanging left- facing corner above.
3. 40m. Climb the corner to gain an obvious rightward foot traverse leading round a short arete. Traverse right and climb the centre of a turfy wall aiming for a notch in the skyline.
