West Ridge (Hicks–Dampier Traverse)

Traverse from Mt Hicks via the ridge, avoiding two prominent towers on whichever side is best in the prevailing conditions. Then go up the ridge to a schrund. From here continue up steep snow, through rocks, to the summit. It is also possible to cross the north face to the north ridge and then up to the summit.
The true summit maybe harder to attain than how it appears in the literature. (personal observation, Peter Dickson circa 1987).
