Via Mount Allan. I traversed from Mount Allan dropping down its north-east ridge to reach the saddle, 253470. From there I started to traverse on the east side gaining little elevation until I had a clear view of my ascent (past the Ship's Prow) to another saddle, 262479. The summit is quickly gained from there.

Scramble:  Awesome two summit day, wish Fab was here with the pooch. I came down the south-east gully and eventually made my way back on some ski runs.
