Little river route

Follow Blackford Road from the turn-off to the first bridge at Little river by Cleardale farm. Gain ridge on left where ever you feel like it, climb 1700 meters vertical to reach Mt Hutt North Peak. Optional 100 meters of loose grade 10 (not recommended) on right near the top. Descent-retrace steps (recommended) or descend down valley faster but with risky wet down climbs.
