East Faces

From the Waihopai valley, walk up Gosling Stream to Gosling Hut (6 bunks, standard, no mattresses). The stream forks about 1.2km upstream from the hut. The true right branch soon becomes rugged; bushcrash past a waterfall on true right, following a cairned trail, into upper basins and on to the summit. The true left branch is easily followed through open forest and across large tussock and scree basins to the summit ridge.
