Beautiful walk. Some of the creek crossings were a bit slippery, resulting in one involuntary swim, but that wasn't too much of an issue. If I were walking with kids I'd consider doing it counter-clockwise as you get the climb out of the way in the first couple of ks and it's all downhill from there, but it is a bit of a relentless climb at first.

I think it's probably nicer clockwise as you are looking up the creek constantly. The climb to the top is a bit more broken up, but probably is steeper in spots. Though it's cooler in the rainforest than on the track.

I'll do this one again.

Road up to the Cleared Ridge is in good nick at the moment.

Walk was great. Lots of water at the moment. Well worth it.
