Logan's Ridge and North Ridge

7th Feb Ascended Logan's Ridge with Tom (Twig) Wilson and a few of his friends(Po, Steve, Pat). I was greatful for the opportunity to document the ridge further for the on line guide I have published: http://www.geocities.com/qld_bwc/seq/ebarney.htm
Even though it was a summer day the weather was quite pleasant and the ascent was good fun. We met some other walkers on the summit (medical students from UQ) who came with us to North Peak where we located some water to top up and had lunch. Identifying the descent route down North for them, they then left before us as we needed some time to enjoy the top and needed some well earned rest. The descent down North Ridge was overgrown in sections. (I haven't seen the views from here looking this green for more than 10 years.) There are 3 diversions to the south on North and we found them no trouble. Rocky Creek was flowing nicely and I filled up to have some nice drinking water for a week or two. Everyone appeared to enjoy the day and handled even the tough sections with ease.
