It's mostly easy to follow, however, there are a couple of stretches where it is a little vague, and you have to keep your eyes peeled. Once past the hill behind Lady Lake Hut, it's fairly flat and easy.

It's very had to follow in the snow, but doable if you're OK with navigation.

Been a couple of years since I did highs to Nameless but my recollection was the track was easy to follow to Lady Lake but got a little more difficult to follow once u get past lake Lucy something...cairns sometimes hard to see! Its a great walk though, just remember that the track from Lady Lake starts on the l left of the hut, we spent ages looking for it as the map indicated the track was more towards the lake itself!

It was worth it

I went to Lady Lake Hut today. Easily found it on Higgs Track. I heard there are other tracks from Lady Lake that lead to other mountains and Ironstone Hut but I could not find these tracks. Once I get to Lady Lake Hut, where to from there?

It was 6 years ago but as I remember it, as you are walking to towards the hut the track to Ironstones goes off to the left, over the small hill.

That will show where the track is

Norts is right re picking up the track. I'm not sure of the LISTmap (they've got a beta version out now with improvements?) and the accuracy but check in the Hut next time as there's a few maps and track descriptions in there

Have a look at OSM
