Ascend the east face from the east end of Bryant Lake before boot packing up the NE shoulder to the summit of M.t Fraser. Alternatively, the run can also be accessed by skiing and boot packing directly up the line. The 800m line starts with an airy entrance pitch rolling into a short steep (up to 45 degrees) couloir that empties into the North Face proper. An alternate entrance 50m down the NE ridge is steeper but less prone to wind loading.
