Hard
6km return
5 hrs
1.5 hrs to top of gully, another 15 mins or so to the cairn. very windy at the top. altitude app said 971 m elevation [i forgot to check at cotswald but about 250 there i think]. about 1.5 hrs all the way down. still evidence of rockfall in the gully. wildflowers not quite in full swing yet. passed 6 other walkers on a regular thursday which seemed busy for a weekday.
Mt Mitchell (Main Range National Park)

Medium

Solo trip 1 hr 10 mins up, 1 hr down. the track seems to have been recently cleared so it's easy going. the landslides are quite spectacular and a little unnerving. also got a sting from a juvenile giant stinging tree on a knee - watch out! the climb gains about 400-450 metres altitude from the carpark to summit according to my iphone app.
