24/11/2025 - Headed up via leftmost couloir at head of TL branch E Hawdon, then followed the apex of E ridge to summit turning the odd gendarme. Traversed down via the normal route over Smooth Peak, then down off Blackball ridge back to Biv. A commuting chamois set off a wet avalanche near summit. (Joe Nawalaniec)
