Chose a very windy Winter day but luckily the wind was on our side pushing us into the rock face.
Mt Norman (Girraween National Park)

Hard

There is a cairn on the top of the mountain though you need to do some climbing to the West. The actual summit requires you to jump across boulders and is not for faint hearted, especially on a windy day.

Very windy climb today, but an absolute must-do granite monolith.

Charlie's updated version works as best description. From the Summit you can go West along the ridge, go past where you ascended and bushbash for a bit (took us around 20 minutes), and eventually you will come to another lookout area and one where you are able to get a glimpse of the Steamers to the South.
Mount Tibrogargan Summit (Glass House Mountains National Park)
21 Jul, 2019
Very Hard
2.7km return
2 hrs
Finally bagged this bad boy after nearly two years of climbing mountains around greater Brisbane. It plays a tough mental game, particularly just after chicken rock, but it's worth the effort, and not even the most taxing I've done.
Mt Walsh (Mount Walsh National Park)
12 Jul, 2019
Hard
4km return
3 hrs
One of the best mountains we've climbed. The last scramble looks harder than it is, though can still be a little daunting on the way down. We started climbing in the afternoon so had to make our way down before we lost the light but would have been nice to see if we could get to the other peaks from the summit. Great views in all directions and lots of interesting features along the way.
Spring Mountain (Thornbill Drv trailhead) (White Rock - Spring Mountain Conservation Estate)
6 Jul, 2019
Hard
11km return
4 hrs
Entered from Angelica Avenue (Grech Park) and skirted around the water tower to find the trail. Recommend following the ring road. Easy ro go down the wrong path but most seem to meet up again anyway.
Mt Tunbubudla East (Glass House Mountains National Park)
30 Jun, 2019
Hard
4.9km return
3.5 hrs
Did East and West peaks in one day. Recommend doing the East peak first as it does take slightly longer and you can save the better view from the West peak for last.
Mt Tunbubudla West (Glass House Mountains National Park)
30 Jun, 2019
Hard
4.7km return
3.5 hrs
Did both East and West peaks in the one day. Recommend going up the East peak first as this one is a bit easier and shorter, but has the better view of the other glasshouse mountains at the summit. Steep but not difficult.
Mount Coolum (Sunshine Coast)

Nice easy walk, though a bit too much foot traffic for my liking. Good to show newcomers to hiking.
Mt Ninderry (Sunshine Coast)

Medium
3.3km return

Some of the best views are off the set track, though there is a clear path circling around the top of the mountain.
Mt. Mathieson Circuit (Main Range National Park)

Followed the circuit from Pioneers graves in an anticlockwise direction towards Governor's Chair. Fairly easy walk with some views of Cunningham's gap area, Mt Mitchell and Mt Cordeaux on the way. Definitely recommend a 4 wheel drive to get up to the parking area as the dirt road was not too kind on my little Mazda.

To complete the circuit follow the mountain bike trail that branches from the Araucaria trail. At the end when. You reach the dam you need to skirt around a fence and you should end up at the bus depot. Follow the road up the hill and you should reach the wildlife centre and carpark.
