From the parking spot walk along the rocky outcrop to lookers right.
From here traverse up and then head left towards the large main peaks.
When approaching the top of the first steep section a couloir will open to looker's right. This is the Tomas Couloir and is quite wide. The route goes up this couloir and onto a large open space called (directly translated) "the place of heavenly peace". The couloir is roughly 40-45 degrees steep for most parts.
From here you can access Tomastinden, Store Lakselvtinden and Imbodentinden. To approach the target of this route head across the large flat to the east and ascend the peak. The last section starts around 30 degrees and gets more and more steep towards the end.
Summiting is recommended to do without skis due to lots of rocks sticking out from under the snow.
Severe
Steep skiing at 38-45 degrees. This requires very good technique and the risk of falling has serious consequences.
