Above - Our objective was to traverse on the ledge to the headland
and then hopefully descend to Megalong.

Above - Looking back along the ledge we had traversed.
Above - We continue out to the point. At one stage we pass a rope
hanging down from a higher level - probably a pass up through the
cliffs.

Above - The ledge is thinner here
Above - looking back
Above - Near the headland. We descended a little further along -
very close to the nose. The ledge did not continue around the
corner.
Above - Below the headland, we find two depressions - that look like
they were once shale mine adits. Further down we came across this
sloping pathway. The side had been built up with rocks - so it was
man made. This was a fair way above the tramway level.

difficulty by members of the Catholic Bushwalking Club in 1986.
