Definitely one for the peak bagger.
by MichaelG55  9 Jul 2020
Parked at G701 811 starA at a forestry gate, parking space for 2 vehicles and walked to G6981 8142 starB as per track details. Turned left and ascended eventually to summit from col. Ground conditions were so bad that rather than retrace our steps we descended through a cleared forestry area to G681 808 starC to pick up a forest track towards Mulnanuff.
