A Great Day
by Skyebabyisback  31 Mar 2012 Great Day for the hike, some fog on top but it didn't matter, was very challenging for me though had I been a bit fitter would likely just think it was a fair hike.. Found it very steep and a lot of rock movement great care had to be taken especially on the descent.. A great way to spend a morning or afternoon though. Felt it busy though quite a lot of people going up and down added to the fun..
