Bell ridge (Partial) Scramble on 11-Aug-2025
Approximate distance and elevation 14km and 923m. Having arrived at the first summit way before lunch time it was an easy decision to continue along the ridge. We made it to a point roughly half way up the second summit where we decided to stop for lunch on a nice grassy bench. For the return we partially retraced our steps to the saddle between summits one and two and dropped down the east side on a larch filled ramp until a break in the cliff permitted a safe descent to the tarn where we picked up the trail. Back at 4pm
