Fettes Pk

From the Whitcombe Glacier gain the ridge and traverse over loose rock to the
summit.
"Olly and I made a 16-hour return trip from a bivvy at the junction of the
Spence and the Landsborough. I think ours was the 5th ascent of the peak,
although I don't know how I figured that. Our ascent is noted in the CMC
Journal, no. 39 New Climbs, although it's incorrectly listed as the E Ridge
(the Townsend-Fettes ridge defines it). It was interesting on top because we
found a bottle with, as I recall, the first ascentionist's names from 1933,
and then we descended their route."

From Highland Pass, ascend the blunt ridge a bit before traversing west at about 1750m, or climb over a shoulder at 1950m, to connect with a narrow snow ramp leading up between steep bluffs to the Zircon névé. Could be bare slabs late season. The summit pyramid is best approached along the south ridge.

Follow the Whitcombe Creek to reach the Fettes Glacier. Ascend the glacier to
gain the ridge above the Spur Glacier and traverse the ridge to the summit.
Christopher Johnson, a member of the first ascent party, an old boy of Fettes
College, Edinburgh, placed his school hat-band in the summit cairn.

From a camp on Mueller Pass, and the upper Zora Creek, gain height via the
gully onto the Zircon Glacier and ascend the upper snowfields to the summit.
