South Ridge

From the Milford Road take the track to Little Babylon and then climb steep bush to the tussock ridge. You can also reach this point from the upper Donne but it’s not necessarily quicker. The crux section is the buttress leading up to Pt 1825m. The first ascent party took four and a half hours to gain the summit, returning to Homer Hut via the Central Darrans and Moraine Creek in seventeen hours. More recently the route has been used as direct, technical and exposed access to Lake Turner.
