Note: Described in the reverse direction to your journey
Climb the crevasse free slopes towards pt 2415m, making a rising traverse from about 2200m to the col S of Mt Farrar. Descend to the Farrar Glacier; due to glacial recession, it may be necessary to traverse SW before descending to the glacier proper. Travel underneath Mt Hulka to Iceland Col and ascend Mt Kensington. Descend via same route. Depending on snow, Mt Hulka is gained from either the E slopes or the N. Return to the col S of Mt Farrar. Mt Farrar is a rocky scramble (depending on snow cover). Descend the same way.
