I'm doing 5 things
Mount Beerwah, 2nd April 2006

A fantastic climb, weather perfect, visibility outstanding today. I could easily see the skyscrapers on the Gold Coast two hours drive away. It is a different world up on top, the flora seen only grows on the mountain. The shrubs look like bonsai specimens, tiny flowers all over the place. Believe it or not, there is a long white beach half way up! Not kidding!
Required:
-enthusiasm
-0700h start
-good level of fitness and strength
-proper climbing boots
-tough pants for sliding
-broad-brimmed hat
-2 litres of water per person
-fresh fruit
The picture demonstrates the grade of this climb, nearly 60% in places, so zig zagging is a must. Crab walk down where possible, save your legs for the descent, use handholds always!
