Climbing and access information for this peak is on Page 38 of the book. The route information contained in the book came from Neil McAvoy, who made the first ascent in 1964. I note that there is a SummitPost entry for this peak that is critical of the book entry, calling it completely wrong. Since Neil passed away many years ago it is not possible to secure a response from him. Updated October 2021
