Turner Pk

Type
Altitude
2338m

Proud Peak is essentially an outlier of Turner Peak and it seems odd that they are named separately. Here, and in the Aoraki Tai Poutini guide (2018) they are treated as one peak.

Several routes about 250m long, which are easily accessible from Ball Pass. Most routes involve a combination of steep snow and up to WI2+ ice. Harder variants with WI3+ steps at the start are possible. Generally steep at first then onto 60 degree neve ramps with some small steps, 70-80 degrees max. Climb when conditions are fat, rock gear would be nix. Named Névé Névé Land by Jaz Morris in 2013 on what he thought was the first ascent.
