On 3 December 1910. Freda Du Faur became the first woman to climb New Zealand’s highest peak, Aoraki/Mt Cook. Over the ensuing 3 climbing seasons she went on to become perhaps the most accomplished amateur mountaineer of her time, regardless of sex.

She wrote: 'I was the first unmarried woman to climb in New Zealand, and in consequence I received all the hard knocks until one day when I awoke more or less famous in the mountaineering world, after which I could and did do exactly as seemed to me best.'
