Mountaineering
In ideal conditions (which are not a given even in midsummer!), the ridge can be climbed without snow or glacier for a few days in August/September, with scrambling areas in the first ridge. The "key point" is a slab that can be tricky when wet.
Mountain experience, assessment of ability, fitness and weather is a prerequisite, you should know what you are doing.
