Details

Approach #10mins

Go up above the hut towards the “Rabbit Ears” and start at the base of these.

Route #250m vertical gain, circa 400m of climbing

Get to the Rabbit Ears by easy climbing (2/3) up a gully. Follow the ridge, climb a gully (3) then a pitch up a corner/slab 4b to reach the crest of the main ridge. Follow this mostly 3 with one passage of 4, to the summit

Descent

Climb down the gap to the left then descend the gully on the E side. There is an abseil ring to help descend the steepest part of the gully. A good path at the side of the glacier back to the hut, (cairns, yellow paint marks.)
