Descend the steep snow slope just east of the Pioneer hut to the low angled glacier. Follow the glacier with relative ease down in a north-westerly direction aiming to the north of Chancellor Dome to avoid the most heavily crevassed section of glacier. Follow this line for further than you think, it's much easier and safer than walking into the maze of crevasses below despite the extra few hundred metres walking! Loop back south to where the east ridge of Chancellor Dome meets the glacier.

From the slight saddle to the east of Chancellor Dome, follow snow slopes the the south of the mountain down and alongside the edge of the glacier until you begin to drop more steeply to reach the dry ice and a flattening. Follow the flat dry ice to its end and look out for marker poles and a short section of rope dropping to the glacier, leading to a marked footpath to the Chancellor hut.
