Mt Denny Scramble on 9-Sep-2026

Participants: Jack, Serena, guest Rob 11km, 1450m, 9 hours. Excellent trail to meadows below peak. Tedious scree to the north peak and exposed, solid scrambling to the south peak. Summit register on south peak. Short sections of good travel on scree for the descent, but slabs underneath the surface generally kept the pace slow.
