#4a McKirdy Creek and #4b McKirdy Summit Trail
You can access the McKirdy Creek- McKirdy Summit trail head by parking at the North end of the Selwyn traverse and hiking the 4.3 km's to the #4a trail head sign. From this point there is an extreme elevation gain of 5000' (1500 meters) in 3.7 km to reach the 8500' (2600 meter) summit. Allow 7 to 9 hours for a return trip to the summit.
