Pakeke Pk

From the Temple-Ahuriri Saddle traverse to the south, passing Pt 2190m, to reach the summit.

From the head of west branch South Temple stream crampon up the narrow chute
to reach the ridge. Stone fall is a possibility.

Aim for a right-tending ledge system that leads to a slab in the centre of the south-east face. An eight-pitch rock climb plus simul-climbing on reasonable rock, crux grade 14. To descend, head straight down the steep notch on the other side of the summit ridge for one pitch or abseil, then traverse left across broken rock and drop back into the valley south of Pk 2124m.

From the Temple–Ahuriri Saddle, traverse scree slopes to the base of the north-east face of Pakeke Peak. Climb the steep slope, angling towards a shallow gully that reaches the summit ridge about 50m west of the summit. Descend the same way.
