This part (going up to the summit) is quite steep, you WILL need to use your hands. It’s almost like climbing but not steep enough to require a rope. Be extra careful if the rock has snow on it. Counter intuitively, you have to climb almost straight ahead, do not try to circumvent the rock by the side. Aim for the « hole » just on the left of the pink granite (see annotated photo)
