At 2590m it meets another path from the L, then heads SE off the moraine, before then gaining another moraine, heading NE, to 2690, before heading R to the Plan Glacier Hut. The day could be split here for acclimatisation.

Alternatively continue on up, making it a pretty big climb all the way to the Durier Hut. From the Plan Glacier Hut follow the obvious path, descending slightly then rising, before crossing the Miage Glacier at about 2790m and crossing it, heading to an entry point onto the steep broken rocks, following a vague rib and red markers, to the Durier Hut at 3358m.
