South East Ridge | III 2 |
|
||||||||
Climbed via Panorama, Bruce Murray, and Upton. Beyond Panorama and its snow plateau, the ridge had a mix of rock pinnacles and snow arêtes, while a tower before Upton Peak, like the peak itself, was turned on the north-east side. A shoulder of snow then led on to a narrow section of fine black crumbly rock that several early accounts disliked, followed by a step in the ridge that was passed on snow out to the left. Above this, a snow plateau with crevasses led them to the summit.

From the Butler River South Branch,

This may be difficult. Climb snow slopes
to the snow saddle between Mt Moffat
and Mt Livingstone and continue to the
summit

South West Ridge | 2+ |
|
||||||||
The first ascent party camped on the
Nansen névé and crossed the west ridge
of Cassino to access the Gino Watkins
Glacier. The descent into the Gino
Watkins was particularly steep. From theGino Watkins Glacier climb the west face of Pt 2543 metres to access the Main Divide southwest
of Mt Moffat. The summit ridge was largely sidled on the left, returning to the Divide
just below the top for a final arête. Reported as scrambling, with the odd pitch along the Main
Divide.
