Harper-Speight Traverse

This traverse can be completed by a fit party based at Barker Hut, via White
Col and Mt Harper’s South West Ridge. The very craggy Harper-Speight ridge
is then followed: this traverse involves a steep buttress descent to the col
at the head of the Speight snowfield. An alternative route, which avoids the
buttress, descends the eastern snowfield of Harper and joins the usual route
up the Speight snowfields.
