Ascend via the red rocks with overhanging sections at the top (left is a black overhanging wall, right is a wet wall with black streaks) — up to a small internal corner three meters to the right of the "Claw" cornice. Wet rocks with a limited number of cracks. R4–R6. Ascend via the internal corner and then move right to bypass the overhanging rocks of the "Claw" cornice, leading to a ledge with a control cairn. R6–R7. Traverse a wide, gentle ledge to the right to bypass a large cornice, reaching a small chimney-crack. R7–R8. Ascend via the small chimney-crack and then move up and to the left to a large 60-meter internal corner. R8–R9. Alternate between 3–4 meter walls and ledges. Overnight stay possible. R9–R10. Ascend via the right side of the large internal corner to reach a rocky ridge. R10–R11. Ascend a gentle, moderately complex ridge to reach a snow slope. R11–R13.
