Mount Bartle Frere

The highest mountain in Queensland, Australia. It's about 50km south of Cairns and climbing it is more of a challenging bush walk than a mountain climb. Listing the mountain here is more for completeness of information about Australia's highest peak than mountain climbing challenges.

Mount Victoria

Rounded mountain range north of Port Moresby, can be seen from the airport on clear days. Very high and close to town, makes an interesting campout to experience an environment like "the Scottish highlands". Advised by a couple who spent two weeks there, better than at trip home !! Good view, best drop-off and pick up by chopper !

Mitre Peak

Mitre Peak is perhaps more notable because it overlooks the pictursque Milford Sound, one of the most spectacular of New Zealand's Fjiord. This steep, towering Matterhorn of the south is snow capped the whole year, and climbing it can be difficult. The Fjiordland National Park is one of the most beautiful in the world, rivalling those of Norway, Alaska and Patagonia.

Mount Aspiring

Mount Aspiring is one of South Island's most attractive mountains. It rises near the island's stormy west coast, its classic glaciated horn towering above the surroundings. It is hugged by glaciers on both its north and south sides, and ascending it requires ice skills, as well as rock climbing skills for the summit.

Mount Cook

Mount Cook is the highest mountain in New Zealand. Its mile-long summit crest towers over 8,000 feet above a vast network of glacier-filled valleys, and three main peaks rise from the crest. Its isolated location near the west coast makes it vulnerable for sudden storms, which are often long and severe.

Mt Tapuaenuku

Mt Tapi (for short) is the highest peak in New Zealand outside the Southern Alps. Ice axes and crampons are required during the winter months (June - August). In warmer conditions most of the climb near the top is on scree (this is why some prefer to climb in winter to avoid scree).
