Outlook Ridge

Leader: Brian Lambourne 10 April 2025 Outlook Ridge

A party of 10 met at the Shark Spotters Hut on Elsies Peak at 8am and hiked to Outlook Ridge where everyone put on climbing harnesses before beginning the C+ scramble to the summit

A rope was used for two of the pitches. A two- way radio would have been useful on the first pitch as the wind and distance between belayer and climber made communication difficult.

Everyone however successfully summitted and were back at the cars at 13.20
