Man, I've really gotta get myself back to Girraween and do some proper exploration down there, not just a hurried stroll up the Pyramid. It's awesome how you can just wander around off track quite easily in that area. I appreciate the effort you went to to film some of those shots of the wild weather - it made for some nice footage. Also, I've never heard of Mt Pa Lerouse before ;)
Haha, I know right. I picked Pa Lerouse up in editing, but didn't bother to change it. There is so much to explore in Girraween. You can certainly spend so many nights out there. All the creeks have dried up though due to the drought.
Amazing adventure, the beauty of nature. The storm gave it an element of excitement & distress, but you handled that in such a calm manner. Very enjoyable
Beautiful scenery and a bit of rugged adventure there in those winds(!) Glad you got down safely and thanks for taking us along on another enjoyable trip.
First mountain reminded me of mt Amos on the east coast....I just texted my mate and said we gotta do Southern ranges then you talk about that cairn from mt la parouose lol funny coincidence....say what sea to summit yes there shit mate fuck that brand...ya tent looks good...Nemo are the best I have most of there gear...sea to summit can't make a quilt check my zenbivvy one out mate it's a beast...that sunset looked awesome dude and so did that rock figure...steak I'll show you steak mate can't wait to catch up and go for a hike esp after seeing you and Lucas do a colab...be prepared mate Mt Anne shelf camp is the same will rip ya tent apart mate I've got better plans on that track if you still wanna tackle it...bloody unlucky with that wind man shit happens but we all learn....hope ya well take care talk soon man, mad adventure by the looks of it thanks for sharing 😁 mt pa lerouse 😅😅😅😅😅
Yeah it is fairly similar to Mt Amos, although the climbing is more technical. Yep, I don’t use a lot of S2S gear, just the summer quilt and some cooking accessories. My standard quilt is from Tier Gear but is too hot this time of year. We plan to start Mt Anne on Jan 10. Hit me up on Instagram if you want.
@@AaronGrayOutdoors I don't have sookbook or famgram were talking now ain't we lol 😂😂🤣 ok Jan 10th I'll see if the boys wanna come aswell Il hit you up on here sometime 👍🍻💪🥾😉
It has been disgusting lately. This weekend was only 20c out there so the temperature was enjoyable. Girraween is usually a few degrees cooler than Brisbane which helps. I was actually out there the weekend before (planning to do this hike), but bailed as it was too hot.
Thx for keeping it real and posting trips that don’t go to plan.
Thanks so much. I appreciate the support, cheers!
God what a mission that turned out to be. Big call to walk out in the dark so glad that all went to plan
Thanks mate! Yeah it was a huge call. The winds were certainly intense though. Glad I was able to get down safely.
Great Video Aaron, Drone work was nice. The Valley of the winds looks incredible.
Looking forward to your next video.
Thanks Fergus. Appreciate that 👍

Stunning scenery mate, definitely need to explore that area some day
Thanks mate! Yep for sure. I need to get down and explore some of those NSW parks. Budawangs is high on my list at this stage.
Great effort thanks for the aerial shots.
Thanks for watching Tim, I appreciate it. Cheers!
Glad you got down safely
Thanks Andy. It was a challenge getting down for sure. It was so dark.
Love the granite
Cheers. It really is a fantastic place to explore.
Legend loving the vids would love to see you cook more out there❤
Cheers Alex. I certainly want to cook more, especially on the single overnight trips. I really am getting over the dehydrated / packaged meals.
Definitely gonna try and retrace your steps to this spot to test out some of my new gear 🤙
Hopefully you don’t get blown off 🤣. It’s a great walk. Enjoy!

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Thanks Fiona. The winds certainly got pretty extreme. Thanks for watching!
Restless night in the wind I bet, glad to see you off safely 👍
Thanks Marty, it was. Cheers!
Great vid. Subscribed
Appreciate that. Thanks! 👍
I've been caught out up there before. Conditions can change quickly in the granite belt
They surely can. I've had some windy nights at out Girraween before, but nothing as extreme. Thanks!

How hot was it? I've been wanting to get back out but it's just so hot!

Better to Avoid 🫢🫣😮
Haha it might have been the wisest idea, but the original forecast was fine (light winds). Thanks!
