A popular route in a good position. Start at the base of a groove with 'PMP' on it.
1) 20m. Climb the groove for 4m, move right and climb the arete to a tree (possible belay). Continue up the next groove above a ledge to another tree belay.
2) 10m. Traverse across the slab to belay in a corner.
3) 30m. Step right onto a nose of rock. Climb round the right-hand side of the nose which leads to the base of the upper slab (possible belay). Climb the slab then step right to a ledge. Scramble off above.

The groove with 'PMP' on it is the start of Borchgrevinck - the original PMP starts further right (but due to the misidentification most people do the described version instead).
