UNNAMED 104550 2450m
Located 1.6 km south of Wolf‘s Ears. This peak is not called Mount Rinda by local people, as claimed in CAJ 47(1964):61 (map; PC: Howie Ridge), but is unnamed. The peak climbed by Bob Dean in 1956 (KK 26:27) is the real Mount Rinda, reached from Hoder Creek.
1. North Ridge. From a helicopter camp at the lake (2240m, 7350 feet) at the head of Robertson Creek, gain the serrated north ridge of Un. 2450m and follow it (roped) to the top. It is a striking summit with sheer walls.
If one is in the Mulvey Cirque, one may approach using the col just east of Wolf’s Ears.
(I,5.0,s).
FRA David Deane, Jim Rees, 31/08/1963.
Descent was by another route to the Robertson Creek valley. This party climbed the West Wolf’s Ear and Un. 2450m in one day.
The “Old Gimli Trail” that departs the cut block above the Gimli Ridge Trail, ascends to just north of 2450. Before 1994, when the Gimli Ridge trail was constructed, this route involved the least bushwhacking. The cirque between the Muzzle and Gimli was traversed. It is now the main access to Robertson Creek and the peaks that surround its headwaters.
