Head for the small permanent ice gully south-west of Mt Neave. Continue to the col and then up very loose rock. The first ascentionists followed Snag Creek, climbing out on the true left, then climbed the South Ridge and descended the West Ridge. However, it needs to be noted that maps at this time all placed Snag Creek downstream of Neave Creek, while the metric series place Snag Creek upstream. Their Snag Creek was probably today’s Neave Creek.
