Weld explored Acheron (which they named) and followed it to the Clarence River. They then the upper Awatere in 1850 and picked up the Hossack River which lead them to the Hanmer Plain. The trip discovered Barefell Pass. Francis from north-east to south-west took them six weeks and was fraught with Molesworth was his friend. dense matagouri, loss of their compass, storms of sleet, hail and snow and numerous river crossings. Mitchell’s memorandum noted that in the future their route could easily be accomplished in ten days.
In December of the same year Frederick Weld, with Lovegrove, found Barefell Pass at the head of the Awatere River and followed the Guide River down to the Acheron, but mistakenly thought he was in a different place and that he could see the Waiau River in the distance. This proved costly when Sir William Molesworth. he ordered 700 sheep through his route to Canterbury and the flock had to be abandoned when his shepherds could find no way out of the Clarence, despite Mitchell’s party having managed it through the Hossack River. In 1852 Edward Jollie and Edward Lee drove sheep through Frederick Weld’s Barefell Pass route and successfully took them through to Hanmer via a new route (Jollies Pass). A viable stock route from Marlborough to Canterbury had been found.

Weld then joined McCabe and travelled up the Clarence to Lake Tennyson and over Island Pass. They then retraced their steps and walked out to Canterbury. Thanks to these men, by 1855 travellers and stock drovers could now travel via Tophouse and Tarndale, or via Tophouse and Island Pass, from Nelson to Christchurch in six days while stock drovers took three to four weeks with flocks of up to 4000 sheep. In 1857–1858 over 24,000 sheep were driven from Nelson to Canterbury.
