I live just on the other side of the range and a little to the north from where you were and I know what that must have felt like cos its mongrel country in there alright. Couple of years ago I was going up a stupidly steep spur, not far from where you were but on the east side of the range. Both feet slipped right out from under me, happened so fast and as I was carrying the rifle in both hands I didn’t have time to put put an arm to break my fall and I headbutted a staunch tree root slap bang in the middle of the forehead. Knocked myself clean out. Lucky for me I had a mate following up the spur a couple of minutes behind and he found me face down in the mud. After getting me up and going again I didn’t hear the end of it for weeks. I was bloody lucky I didn’t loose my teeth or land on my nose I guess, that would have hurt. Thanks for posting.

I figured someone could learn from my mistake. Or remind people to be careful.

You're lucky you're mate was there. Can you drown in mud?

That would've been a permanent reminder ha.
