Located on

From a kilometre north of Red Hut travel through the beech forest to the foot
of the ridge. Towers on the ridge are turned by sidling across both west and
north faces. The first ascent party were benighted high on the ridge - they
were the first party to discover that the route is long and requires
considerable time on the sometimes friable rock. A challenging climb.
