High peak of Mt. Cook from Middle peak

High peak of Mt. Cook from Middle peak

The exciting summit ridge of Mt. Cook with many larger cornices. When viewing them in profile before getting to them you could see some previous tracks went WAY too close to the edge and other conservative tracks were so low down that the angle of the slope was much harder to negotiate. When actually on them you could see why some people chose the high route as there was no feeling of the edge being near but the overhangs were huge so we stayed well away.
