North East Face

From Moraine Flat, head upstream and ascend scree slopes to the base of bluffs below the Avoca Glacier. Several routes are possible through the bluffs, which involve straightforward rock climbing and scrambling on reasonably good rock. From the top of the bluffs, cross the Avoca Glacier, heading south-west towards the summit of Mt Greenlaw, avoiding gendarmes and loose rock on the north ridge. The rock on the summit of Mt Greenlaw is notoriously loose. At the end of the glacier, rather than join the north ridge, traverse south slightly on to marginally better rock on a rib that leads directly to the summit. Follow this to the top. The east ridge can be gained at about half height from the Avoca Glacier.
