Follow the Circular Route until past the large granite boulder (Encore Boulder) below the path on the Clifton side of the peak. Follow a faint path up the slopes towards the lowest continuous rock band. The climb begins up a very pronounced dark recess  40m left of an obvious cave with trees.

P1 - 12m, 3: Climb the recess to the overhang. Traverse right below the overhang until able to move up to a ledge.  Walk about 6m right to the first short break on brown rock (cairn).

P2 - 35m, 4b: Climb the undercut break to the ledge above. Walk to the rightmost edge of the ledge, climb onto a block and, using the right-hand crack, climb to stance. Cross the ledge to a recess about 4m high.

P3 - 10m, 4c: Climb the recess, break right and continue to the tea cave traverse. Walk 10m to the left.

P4 - 23m, 5a: This pitch consists of a recessed brown face with an obvious corner crack. Climb the brown recessed face using the crack in the right corner. Climb past a piton and up a short square bottomless recess to the ledge above. Cross the vegetated band heading to the open book where the gendarme meets the flat face on its left.

P5 - 36m, 5a: Climb the open book to the ledge below the overhang. Rail right to a small stance, then climb a short face to the top of the gendarme. Belay from a ledge with trees.

P6 - 20m, 4b: On the right hand side of the face directly about the gendarme is a recess. Climb the recess until able to climb on top of a tall block on a ledge. Step off the block and pull up to the top of the face. Cross a grassy ledge and scramble up a short wall to another grassy ledge. Directly ahead is a crack in a v-groove.

P7 - 20m, 4b: Climb the v-groove to a grassy ledge, scramble up a short rock band to a larger ledge with some loose rock on it.

P8 - 40m: Climb short faces interupted by grassy ledges to the top.
