    I went up today from the summit. Was more to stretch my legs and my lungs. 1st time up there for me. Had an easy hunt planned with a southerly blowing up my ass on the way in.

    Found a spot to pop off the track and just followed the game trails, eventually they took me to where i wanted to be to hunt back into the wind. The wind along the ridge tends to swirl a bit. But i found plenty of sign. Really old, Old, Recent, and super fresh. It was nice to be back in the bush.

    We were up there on Saturday as well, no deer found, lots of sign about - awesome day for it. Was pretty disappointed to see a few carcasses dumped off the side of the bridge at the car park we walked in from... (back legs and back steaks gone) heaps of hikers go in there and that kind of thing doesn't give hunters a good image with the public
