Hippo Takes A Holiday

Ascend a corner system 50m left of the Direct route. Exit onto the Torres-Tasman ridge just above the buttress above the col. Dave used to have a stuffed toy hippopotamus, and on the ascent Hippo was strapped to the outside of his pack. He may have been some comfort when Dave and Brian became trapped in a storm on the descent. Not much of a holiday for a hippo.
