the Caroline Face of Aoraki/Mt Cook was the last unclimbed face of the mountain.
our climbers lost their lives in the 1960s while trying to scale it.
Two of those who died, John Cousins and Michael Goldsmith, may have achieved the feat in November 1963.
Their bodies emerged from the Hooker Glacier on the other side of the mountain in 1999.
