Not easily accessible from the Crow Valley, but a route may be followed up the bluffs behind the Crow Hut using the interlocking slabs and screes (steer well clear of the waterfall gullies, Never found yourself in a situation of no return??) to the basins below the peak. Before attempting this route survey it from the summit of Lyell Peak (Grade. 2 for sheer determination)


1 1North East Ridge, 2 2 0m

  • P1

Bash through scrub 500m south of Crow Hut, to an interesting scree gully at about 1200m elevation. A series of slabs and gullies leads to grassed slopes overlooking a tarn. Gain the North East Ridge at this point and ascend to the summit.
