Type:
Alpine
Description:
From the Hopkins Valley opposite the Dodger Fan, climb through the beech
forest to reach the east ridge. The route stays close to the ridge crest
throughout. The first ascent party reported reasonable quality rock as the
route steepened and narrowed near the top, but subsequent ascentionists have
disagreed with that assessment. Alternative access is from the head of the
North Elcho, or from Thomson Stream. To low summit, Selwyn Grave, Neil Markham,
Scott Russell, Edgar Williams, 1933. First east-west traverse, Des Beatty,
Alan McNaught, Jim McNulty, Ray Slater, April 1956.
