βeta: When we did this route the start was desperate - maybe even technical 7. These pitch descriptions are alos wrong and the route is closer to 150m. 1) Climb the very hard layback crack to the snowy bay, belay at the head of this. 45m. 2) Climb up the chimney formed by the boulder (amusing) and then into grooves above. 45m. 3) Climb easier mixed ground to the cornice. 50m. It was some time ago that I did it - March 99 - but it remains quite a clear memory!
