From our high camp at Nellie Creek it took us less than 2 hours to ascend this peak. The top was a fun loose scramble. The top of the peak sort of freaked me out. It was just a bunch of boulders piled on each other being held together by gravity. After spending about an hour on top we were back at the saddle by 11 am. From here we all split up. Tom went to find a place to relax, my dad went back to camp and I headed up Broken Hill to get another peak in.
