Trip Description

The plan is to follow a trip on SWBC and travel from Murrin over Goat and Skyline Ridge ending at the top of the S2SG gondola to descend down. We will meet at 8AM at St. David's Church, I would need someone else with a car so we can park at Murrin at the start and park someone else at the Gondola to transport us back, the plan is to download to the base on the gondola. Overall it's not very techncal, there's a few relatively short sections of 4th class, and there's definitely exposure in places please make sure your comfortable as you need to be able to down climb class 4. The crux has a fixed rope. The route is marked with flagging tape, and it's mostly in the trees, steep dirt right next to the rocky ridge although you do go on the rocks in a bunch of places too.

You can check out and download the GPS file of the route on Strava https://www.strava.com/activities/15404300709 including a bunch of pics showing the scramble. The last pic is the only vertical-ish rock section that's more than a move or two, but it's really easy climbing. It's right near the summit. 

Please be considerate and do not sign up unless you are committed for the trip and you are in good physical condition. We will be moving at a moderate/fast pace.

What to bring:

Food and water for the whole day

First aid kit

Proper shoes/boots

Helmet
