Trip notes
From the club member's GPS log of the trip (12 September 2004), lightly edited, with people's names removed. Conditions may have changed since.
Club trip; only 5 made it to the top in very windy conditions. Came down the valley to get out of the wind. Note the traverse out lower down to avoid the waterfalls.
