Ascent

Two starting points:

From the Col de la Forclaz 1526m:  Take the TMB (Tour de Mont Blanc) path which traverses upwards through the woods, crossing several couloirs, before turning right into a cwm with the chalets de la Giète 1884m, not visible from below.  Recommended From La Caffe 1260m: follow the forest road E for several hundred metres, then go up steeply by the summer path which joins the TMB shortly before La Giète (1884m).  Recommended only if you want to leave the car at La Caffe.

From the level area at the Giète chalets go up the obvious cwm, (NE) to reach a false col at 2259m. Turn right (NW) to go up some bowls and then a broad ridge which narrows just before the summit 2700m. Wooden pole.

Descent

Initially by the same route.
From la Giète there are two options, depending on conditions:  
Go along the path towards the col de la Forclaz and at 1738m, where the summer path leaves for La Caffe, ski down a couloir (Combe des Faces) directly to Le Mintset/La Caffe.
Continue along the TMB to the col de Forclaz.  
To get back to the col from the first option, either hitchhike from the "Drapeau Swiss" cafe, or if enough snow skin up through the fields, (30mins), or walk up the back road to join the main road just before the col.

The closest ski resort is Les Marécottes - Salvan , 6 km away.
