From the Frind-Mueller confluence, ascend part way up the true right edge of the lower Frind Glacier, then climb left along rock ledges to gain the base of the Ngakanohi (‘the eyes’) Glacier above Ngaroimata (‘the tears’) Falls. Traverse diagonally up to the top of the glacier to join the East Rib of Maunga Ma, which is followed direct to the summit up rotten rock (covered by snow early in the season).
