Mt Warning - First to see the sunrise - Wollumbin  - Cloud Catcher

This really is a must do!  However, a warning for Mt. Warning! - if you have a heart or lung condition, are not used to heights, or are unsteady on your feet, it is suggested that you don't attempt the climb to the summit.  This walk is rated as 'strenuous' - a rating not to be taken likely; - although we did encounter both young and 'substantially' old enjoying the challenge, and the achievement! (obviously fit and able).  Time suggested for the walk is 4-5 hours - to finish before dark, plan to leave by midday.  The view from the summit is definitely worth the effort - it seemed like forever for us to come down, but a nice hot coffee and snack finished off the adventure nicely.

Here's proof - your hosts Lyn and Kym at the summit of Mt Warning.
