Heading into Federation Peak at the end of the month to attempt Blade Ridge / NW Face Direct, and was wondering if anyone had done the routes? Specifically, wondering what sort of rack is necessary? Do you need big gear for the roof crack on NW Face Direct? Also, what's the approach down the gully to the base of Blade Ridge like? Is it all scrambling, or are abseils required?

cheers
