You are more than welcome and I agree, it really is a stunning part of the world and not as appreciated as it should be. Thanks for watching and commenting mate, I sincerely appreciate it 😎👍
The school I went to forced me to climb Mt Maroon. Went up one way and down another. In fact, I've climbed up all the mountains in the area. Greville, Moon, Mt Edwards (little and big), Mt French and every other damn peak in the area.
@@JafffaAdventures I had to row a canoe over Lake Moogerah during a bloody wild storm too. The other kid in the canoe was terrified. I was just extremely concerned but managed to keep us out of the drink battling waves. Stupid teachers.
@@JafffaAdventures Yeah. This poor kid and i were paddling across the widest part of the dam during a violent storm from the south and the waves were enormous. Looking back, yeah, where were the teachers ? Talk about character building... I'm bloody scared to get in a canoe...... I will not get in a canoe unless it is with someone I know and trust.
Brilliant video Terry! That brings back memories. It would have to be 30 odd years ago we climbed Maroon. I recall (vaguely) parking and then walking across a paddock, privately owned. There was a bull, or so they told us. We didn't buggerise around moving to the start of the trail. It seems more civilized now. Where did you park to start your walk Terry? Wouldn't mind giving it a go, just one more time.
Thanks for your kind words Keith, very much appreciated. We parked at the end of Cotswold Road where the trail head is. You do indeed have to walk across private land to get to the ascent so it’s probably the same spot you remember. If you’ve got it in you, I would definitely recommend it mate. Even though you have already been up, it’s soooo worth it. Cheers😎👍
@@JafffaAdventures That'd be right Terry. Rings a bell. I'll give it a go. I can vividly recall the views, stunning. Bit older (and stiffer) now. I'll fly the drone, should be good.
Hi Terry, nice one, enjoyed watching. You know what, Friday night several vids show up... yours are my pick prio 1. And by the way, you drink water? Was guessing you are a Bourbon men! Cheers mate and safe climbing.
That’s very kind of you to say Holger and I am humbled, thank you. I do drink water if I’m forced to, but your right, bourbon or whiskey are my two go to drinks. Keep the shiny side up mate, cheers😎👍
I went on this climb a few days back and the views have to be the most stunning I’d ever witnessed.
It’s very special that’s for sure. Thanks for sharing😎👍
Other than the Lost World Valley, this is my most favourite part of the world. Beautiful spot. Thank you.

Glad I did not go to your school😂😂. Thanks for watching 👍😎

Teachers could not get away with that today😉😎

Amazing how experiences like that in our formative years can be so impactful, but they certainly are and everyone has a story👍😎
Nice guide, I am trying this one tomorrow and now I know what to expect
Good stuff Alex, you will have a ball mate it really is a top shelf walk. Enjoy mate😎👍
Good work guys. Cheers Steve
Thanks Steve, it was a killer but well worth it. Cheers😎👍
That's a hike to start hydrated on for sure ! Very steep in parts !
Indeed it was. I drank a litre and a half of water just editing the video😂. Thanks for watching and commenting mate, I sincerely appreciate it 😎👍

How's the dirt road to the carpark? A regular car can handle it?
Yep, no problem just take it slow as there are a few sips along the way. Cheers👍😎
