130m, 3 pitches. Nice climbing albeit easily escapable. Start at the lowest rocks on the buttress to the left of the Twisting Gully.
1. Climb a snow slope to a short corner. From the top of the short corner follow a snow slope to the base of a steep turfy groove and belay on a loose chock stone. (55m)
2. Climb up easy snow to a short icy corner. From the top of the ice corner snow leads to an icy runnel. Belay on broken rocks above the icy runnel. (30m)
3. An easy leftwards rising traverse leads to a steep groove on the left hand side of a small buttress directly below the top of the coire. Climb the groove to its top (crux) and step slightly right and climb up the final wall to finish. A cornice may form. (45m)
