UKC
4 pitches. Follow the summer line throughout but climb the overhang direct at the start of pitch 3 and also climb the final chimneys at the top of the V-groove direct before trending right to the south-west ridge. Pitch 2 is by far the crux with poorly protected moves on snowed up slabs to gain the belay below the inverted V-overhang.
