a fairly good path takes us south west then west up the shoulder of the mountain before becoming less distinct up on the more rocky summit ridge with its (hopefully) wonderful views.
the return will be by retracing our steps to the carpark.
it should be noted that this summit and ridge ascent is very open to prevailing winds so if the temperature is low and there are strong winds "wind chill" can be expected.
