2017.03.24 Manly Beacon (contd.)
Route Conditions:Maintained Trail, Unmaintained Trail, Scramble, Exposed Scramble
..The ridge.. is very spicy, with slick sandstone, very limited handholds and devastating exposure on both sides. Had no problem on the ascent, but I was too sketched out on the way down and negotiated the steepest parts on my butt with the aid of a trekking pole. I took my time, focused on each step, and was very relieved to make my way down to the mellower section of the ridge. - Anders Olson, March 16, 2017
I found the above account very entertaining. How did we (down)climb it? No, we didn't butt down..wait for Vera as her writing is much more fun to read than mine.
