1hr 40min ascent, 5hrs round trip as we headed west along the ridge most of the way to west peak before dropping down and bushwacking (through far too much thorny and stinging stuff!) our way back across to the escarpment. No navigation challenges from Governor's Chair through to the first cliff band, just keep the escarpment within view. The trail notes above are outdated - there is no fenceline (probably burnt out). |

After the terrible conditions (and complete lack of views) on the last trip, had to sort out my unfinished business with this mountain and it delivered. At a smidge over 8 hours I was 2.5 hours quicker than last time, albeit with a smaller group and much better (i.e. relatively dry) conditions. Yet again we managed to inadvertently bypass the last scramble on descent, though this time we realised sooner and traversed directly back to the track before we dropped down into the lawyer vine. | ||||

Warrie Circuit + The Pinnacle Agree with Anonymous' comment - there's a bit of exposure for the scramble at the end but there's no way you need protection or roping up. |

3hr45min return trip, 3hrs definitely doable if we weren't with someone slower. Perfect weather meant it was a busy track today - lots of groups heading up. At least we summitted and made it back down through the gully before most of them. | ||||
