The lower section of the creek draining the south side of Mt Split Open is steeply gorged and
impassable. From Kea Pass, sidle across relatively flat ground above the gorge (true left) and
below the bluffs of Mt Split Open to scree and rock slabs leading to a small snow basin. Above
Pt 1803 metres, shingle basins to the east provide easy travel, skirting around pinnacles on the
Divide. Beyond, at an easily accessible col, regain the Main Divide at about 2000 metres. Gravel
leads to the summit.
