The descent is very steep. While it isn't exposed you can expect to use your hands in several places.

Easy scrambling down from the sub summit.

Easy slab rocks to the summit. This might feel exposed for less experienced scramblers, but you should be able to plant your whole foot, and stand up straight the entire way. Using your hands is not necessary, but might be more comfortable in sections.
