Départ du Col du Lautaret en direction du vallon de Laurichard et atteindre le pied du couloir, en rive droite du vallon, vers 2400 m. Remonter le couloir sur 500 m (40/42°) puis sa branche de gauche (à l'E) dont la sortie peut atteindre 50°. On peut également déboucher sur la crête par les pentes de droite (à l'W) mais c'est plus rocheux et raide (>50°, et souvent des corniches).
