We did a round trip from the huts, approaching the peak from the northern side and descending off the southern side. It was pretty easy, mostly just moderate to&nbsp;steepish rock and scree scrambling with the odd snow patch on the upper slopes. A long tongue of snow on the south side made for good bumsliding! Worthwhile chucking the ice axe/crampons in but in our case we could have easily&nbsp;got away without them.</P> <P>&nbsp;Probably your biggest worry would be rain, as its quite gorgy coming up the Hodder and can flood pretty impressively!</P>https://old.vuwtc.org.nz:443/cs/forums/thread/2175.aspxTue, 18 Sep 2007 23:34:42 GMT16d72366-88ed-474a-b0cc-65d60f7c13e3:2175Anonymous0https://old.vuwtc.org.nz:443/cs/forums/thread/2175.aspxhttps://old.vuwtc.org.nz:443/cs/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=14&PostID=2175<P>Hiya</P> <P>I'm considering heading down south with some friends in November, and&nbsp;am thinking about&nbsp;climbing Tapuae-o-Uenuku. Has anyone here climbed up at that time of year, have any comments, advice? I hear it's not too technically difficult? If anyone has some wisdom or experiences to divulge i'd be keen to hear them.</P> <P>&nbsp;Cheers</P> <P>John&nbsp;</P>
