Another ascent of Mt Lindesay...my 6th since 1967. I don't think it's changed all that much, probably because of the infrequent visitors. Lovely rainforest on top as always.
Hey MHUGOM is this a defined track or just a bush bash ? do you need ropes ?
Thanks
Hi, yes interested as well on detail if climbing ropes are essential for the mission ? Cheers
Yeap. You need a rope to climb it since descent is very steep and rappelling makes the return a lot easier. Bring your own cordelettes/webbing to set up the anchor points. Do not use what has been left in place. Always refer to the redundancy principle in setting up climbing anchor. FYI: http://www.adventureprotocol.com/common-climbing-anchor-mistakes/

Good luck! :)
Can you confirm that this isn’t a summit hike, rather just a partial hike?
