    Evening hike up Mt May and camped in the saddle between the two peaks. The track is well defined, so once you find the start, it's pretty easy sailing for navigation. The hike itself is not too difficult, easier than Mt...

    From the caves up to the top shelf is hard off track bush bashing. No trail, only occasional rock markers. Must take gps, must take lots of water and food. Once at the top of the mountain it’s pretty easy going rock hopp...

    Easy enough getting to the cave , though very steep. A decent enough footpad follows the base of the cliff. After the cave , obviously go left, however note that you need to descend down hill a little. As the mountain is...
