other way straight up hell-steep track till it flattens out again up the top, then bush is open-ish and gets shittier as you go further in till running up to hell-leatherwood. Veer off and cut right down to valley on right of track, slips and clearings galore down there, deer own the place. hell carry out back to
track as usual

Yep i concur, the climb is steep and theres plenty of supple jack around. Last time i was there saw a 6 point stag bolt into the bush from about half way up the climb. Plenty of sign in there plenty of supplejack too but it is part of the largest unbroken belt of the lovely stuff.
