From the entrance to the Table couloir, continue along the ridge. After the summit continue along the ridge and identify the best entrance across the steep snow slope (exposed - beware of snow stability - this is a no fall zone). A short abseil brings you to the top of the line. Join the couloir and choose either the direct line or continue to the line further skiers left. At the end of the couloir rejoin the line from the Table couloir or you can also head left to join La Spatule.
