Mitre Peak is an iconic peak nearby Milford Sound.

To access the peak you must kayak 2km from Milford Sound to the base of the peak. There is no real track at first up through very steep bush but a faint track forms on the ridge which gives way to some fun class 4 rock scrambling on the summit crest. 

Incredible views all around from the summit of the sounds and Fiordland Mountains.

Back down the same way. Watch for swell in the afternoon return.

Description

A variation of the White Mountain traverse starting from the Owens Valley and finishing on Queens Canyon Road in Nevada. We started at the base of the road to the radio towers off the "Aqueduct Road" in California and finished at the base of Garner Ridge on the east side of Boundary Peak in Nevada.
