| Comments: |
From the road, we bushwhacked up to the col in regrowth. On the ridge, the woods were tighter matchstick forest. We worked our way towards the West peak, slabbing by the sub-peak between the two. We dropped a little too low and worked our way up to the recognized highpoint in open woods. To return we went over the sub peak and out to the main peak. Woods were mainly open with some tight spots. We ten dropped straight off towards the road, hitting tighter woods and then more regrowth. Conditions were consistently wet. |
