The saddle between McKinnon Stream and Tindall Stream can be reached from either the Godley or Macaulay valleys. If the upper Tindall Glacier is cut up, take a hard scramble up bluffs on the true right. Then follow the ridge and steep glacier slopes south to the north summit. If the icefall is too broken it can be bypassed by climbing Pt 2516m. The traverse from the north to the main (south) summit is mostly rock, and has a couple of difficult spots where some parties will want a rope.
