8 pitches. Begin up a right
leaning gully then move left into a
corner system. Follow this towards
the ridge on the right until you meet
the top of pitch four on Consolation
Prize. From here move left across
easy snow and mixed slopes before
doglegging back right to finish
on the left hand side of the Double
Cone Summit. See the Queenstown
Climbing Club - Queenstown Rock,
Ice & Mixed guidebook for a pitch by
pitch description of the route. And
look out for some abandoned booty
on the second pitch from a previous
abandoned second ascent attempt.
The first three pitches were initially
climbed in summer by Julian White
and went at grade 17.
