Finding the summit

Surveyor's note

trig point 480m NE at NZ 00455 07306 is 1.4m lower; ground 310m NE (554m spot height) at NZ 00405 07137 is 0.8m lower.

The recorded summit point is no feature: grass. That distinction matters on broad or flat tops, where the obvious cairn is not always the true high point.
