The description in Idaho Alpine Zone advises the more northerly route as the better descent route.  I did not investigate this further, relying on route finding experience.  I descended via the more northerly chute.  It was loose and tedious, but easier than the descent to Hummock Lake the day before.  One can see the ridge above Ants Basin, the closer of the three ridges on the horizon.
