Note: Described in the reverse direction to your journey

Descend steep snow grass to boggy flats at 1000 metres then pick your route to bush bash down to the Routeburn track. I went northwest as the contours looked further apart but I still encountered a near vertical bank which required some tree swinging to get down. Keep descending until you hit the Routeburn, you can't miss it.
