3.01 | Requiem for a Dream | III 3+ |

More than a variation of Route 3.02, as the gully
is a distinct feature. From the bergschrund at the
base of the east face, climb snow and ice gullies
200m left of the main couloir. One pitch going
left, then three pitches going right in a series of
gullies to reach the ridge.

3.02 | Wombats on Heat | III 3+ |

Ascend a weakness through the rock band below
the large snowfield, then up to the Main Divide
south of The Footstool. There is a variation that
links snowfields to the right of the rock band.
This is a good alternative to the Couloir Route if
the bergschrund conditions are not favourable.
During late summer, snow can be completely
absent from this face, and the rock is not
worth climbing!

3.03 | Couloir Route | III 3+ |
|
|||||||
From the Tewaewae Glacier ascend the
prominent couloir either to the south ridge,
or near the summit move right up an offshoot
couloir. The bergschrund at the base of the
couloir is often troublesome; this route is usually
cut off after early summer.

East Ridge | 3- |

From Sefton Bivvy ascend the Stocking Glacier and cross northwards to gain the ridge where it rises from a level section. Follow the ridge directly to the summit. The rock is complete choss – avoid like the plague, unless snow covered.
Jack Clarke, Peter Graham, Henrik Sillem, Mar 1906.

Main Divide | 2+ |

Cross the East Ridge and work up the slopes of the Eugenie Glacier to reach the Main Divide, then follow up the north-east snowslopes to the summit. This is the regular descent route.

A route exists from the névé south of the Copland Pass and connects snowslopes on the west to reach the col north of the peak, then as for Main Divide Route . The ridge from the Copland Pass has also been traversed.
