Mount Hicks / Saint Davids Dome, Mountain summit in Southern Alps, New Zealand.

Mount Hicks, also known as Saint David's Dome, is a 3,198-metre summit in the Southern Alps, within Aoraki / Mount Cook National Park on the South Island. It rises above the Hooker Glacier, near Aoraki / Mount Cook, and its south face holds several climbing routes, including the Dingle-Button route.

The first successful climb occurred in 1906 when mountaineers established a route from Empress Hut to the summit. This early climbing expedition helped establish the area as an accessible alpine destination.

The name Mount Hicks honours William Hicks, a surveyor who worked in the Aoraki/Mount Cook region; the mountain is also called Saint David's Dome. Both names appear on maps of the area, and the peak stands above the Hooker Glacier near Aoraki/Mount Cook.

Climbing requires advanced alpine skills and specialized winter equipment, as the summit is exposed and windy in all seasons. Good acclimatization and stable weather are important for safe ascents.

Mount Hicks is also called Saint David's Dome, and its south face holds several routes, among them the Dingle-Button line. Ascents usually begin at Empress Hut, the starting point named in accounts of the mountain.
