North Face from lower Hopkins Valley | 2 |

One of the more accessible routes in the Southern Alps. Drive your 4WD to the
base of the slope and choose a route up through the scattered beech forest
and tussock. Cross onto the snowslopes and onwards in a westerly direction to
the southern summit. A superb spot with views from Mt Aspiring to Malte Brun.
