From the junction with the Bypass Track, the Blowhard Track runs west along the ridgeline in beech forest and open clearings - giving views of the Canterbury Plains to the south. . Broad and well cut it is gentle for the 1st 1.5km, before it starts to climb. Two moderately steep climbs of 100m each follow. 500m short of the Mt Richardson summit the rough MTB track meets an obvious old 4WD track. A signpost 'Mt Richardson marks the junction.
