Elk Tooth is seen looking W from Cony Creek. My route went to the right of the two lower snow patches (with a little rock scrambling around the second one), left around the end of the dark cliff band, up through a small hourglass splitting a cliff band (just right of a small triangular snow patch), and left up to the green area on the shoulder. Then the ridge line can be followed to the summit at the right (west) end of the ridge.
