Route Description:
To the right of The Fallen is a large pinnacle. Climb a small step to gain a grassy ledge at the base of the pinnacle. Climb directly up to a wide crack and some protection. Good axe hooks help the next ledge to be gained. Climb easily over the top and down the other side being careful of loose stones. Continue along the next series of rocky steps to gain a good belay spot.From here cross a short snow slope and another small rock step to the base of the next pitch. Climb over the loose flakes and up the obvious steep crack which has excellent protection. Follow the rock steps and climb the right edge of the final one and belay. Gain ridge and follow the normal route to the top.
