A friend of ours lives on a property that backs onto this, and he'd been up before, so Team MavEtJu, our friend and myself headed up for a stickybeak. There were some steep bits, but we got there. An interesting feature was a champagne bottle in the ground next to the trig. I'm told that surveyors used to often use bottles for survey points, but this one isn't old enough.

We headed west to see if we could look across to the other trig, but after 15 minutes of realatively easy going, the going got tough, and the tough had enough. At this point I really really wished I hadn't left the machete half way up when I realised I didn't need it for the ascent.

The view isn't great from the top, you have to get right to the edge to be out to see through the trees. The tree cover though was great protection from the wind.

If you ever get the opportunity, talk to some of the locals, I know of at least one who won't mind if a bushwalker goes through looking for an adventure.
