The better route crosses south of Mt Farrar and makes a southerly traverse before descending to steep wide ridge below pt 2415m to the Garden of Eden. We weren't to know this and cross the ridge north of Mt Farrar, descended easy slopes before a crevassed descending traverse south to reach the upper Adams Glacier.
Ascend easy slopes and gain the slopes north of Guardian Peak. Traverse to reach the Garden of Allah, cross Satan Saddle to reach the Lambert Glacier. Descend the Lambert to reach the rocky buttress above the icefall. We followed the TL in the mist which was heavily crevassed under pt 1967m, a better line would be more in the centre of the glacier.
