Approached from the lower Deception Valley by ascending Midday Creek and its slide. Once clear of the scrub, continue climbing towards Tarapuhi,a very difficult/horrendous route. From the saddle above Spray Creek a short, very steep, pitch can be climbed on the Otehake side towards Mt Tarapuhi.

 North Ridge, 1 1 0m

  • P1
  • Alpine (Mt Cook) 1

Gain Waharoa saddle via Paruta stream before traversing the tops. The final 1km ridge has several sharp, exposed sections making for an exciting winter climb or a straight forward summer scramble.
