 South Ridge, III,2 III,2 0m
0

Climb the big snow couloir from the head of the Ōtoko River to the broad saddle between Matherson and Dechen. Best approached when there is plenty of snow – an ice bulge near the top can prove troublesome late in the season. Easy snow slopes east of Mt Matheson lead onto the south ridge and the final rock needle.
