Tenzing Ridge

Type

The ridge north of the Garden of Allah leading up to Mt Lambert has been informally referred to as Tenzing Ridge since the 1950s. Significant ice flanks the southern slopes, particularly under Mt Lambert itself. On the northern side of this ridge, there are some significant buttresses and, in places, promising rock at the head of Aciphylla Creek.
The ridge extends west about 4km from Mt Lambert along the true right of the Garden of Allah, finishing above the Beelzebub icefall. The ridge was traversed from Pt 2314m above Satans Saddle to Pt 2278m on 1 January 1954.
