    Looking up to the route from the ridge. You'll want to continue along the ridge for a little while before getting onto the glacier.

    The trail is intermittent. Sticking to the ridge top is best.

    Looking down the gulley to get onto the glacier. This is the loosest part of the trip.

    The glacier gets steeper, about 35 degrees further up as you turn back towards the ridge.

    There are anchor stations past the tat covered rocks. They are not visible from the base. It is exactly 28m from the base of vertical technical climbing.

    There are several cairns, the easternmost led to a gulley with tat anchor rings for rapping down a 3rd/4th class face.
