Upper North Face

There are two access routes to the North Face of Moir depending on the amount of snow in the upper basin. Be aware that the snow field breaks up early summer and has the potential to slide into the depths of the Cleddau Valley.

1. Climb the ridge over Moir's Mate and descend into the upper cirque: the safest route early in the summer.
2. Sidle under Moir's Mate to the Cleddau Ledges (narrow rock ledges under the Mate’s Little Brother) and across to the North Face of Moir and Cleddau Buttress.
