Summit push

The underfoot conditions will be a bit more mushy now as you walk to the summit along a trampled grass track. In winter when the track is covered by snow you can reassure yourself by taking a compass bearing if you haven't been up here before and you want to make sure you dont't wander off the trail. You will lose sight of the summit marker for a bit as you approach it. Don't worry. You are on the right track. You can just see it as the darker tinged grass in the middle. The path will steepen up in the last 50 metres or so before the summit. A sure sign that you are almost there. You can see Dougs going mad in the right hand side of the picture. For some reason he goes bananas round here and wants to jump up on you and play? I haven't figured out why.
