Comments
Comments: For a trailless peak this one is pretty straightforward. Once off FR304A there is a fairly well-trodden herd path all the way to the top. There are a couple of splits along the way but they seemed to reconnect after a short distance (YMMV).

The summit is a pretty busy place judging by the register - which I guess in part explains the herd path. A nice ledgy outlook nearby provided fantastic views on a fantastic afternoon weather-wise. I encountered nobody else on this trek.
