Itinerary description

Bit dodgy, follow my return hike for quickest path.

- two or three bold and difficult scrambles along the ridge. Not for the faint hearted.
- hundreds and hundreds of stinging vines along the mountain edge before ridge. Take it slow to navigate the path correctly
- breathtaking views of main range to the north and scenic rim to the south.
