"Day tripped the high peak of Mt Alexander from Camp Creek Hut. Got an early start but still copped a hot afternoon. Nice going to low peak; last hour on way to high peak is quite scrambly with lots of angular blocky and loose rock. Nice views from both the low and high peaks." — glennj • Feb 4, 2021

"I climbed this as part of the Pouakai circuit going clockwise, I picked the best day of the week for the climb which not only made it safe but the views were fantastic well worth watching the weather forecast. The circuit is 25.5km plus I added the Bells falls which is a 3km there and back tack on and chose to walk the Rams track instead of the road that the circuit suggest as the road is narrow and busy. You could do this with the family stopping at the 2 huts along the way taking 2 or 3 days and exploring the area, its will still be a hard climb but it allows plenty of time. I was on a time limit and decided to do it in a day, it was 9hrs with small stops to enjoy the vista. Doing the circuit clockwise allowed for great views in the morning a the shade of the forest in the afternoon. There are many challenging climbs, the trip to Bells Falls was steep up an down trip and The Henry almost broke me later on in the journey not just the climb but the decent goes on forever. Overall this is a must do trip however you do it and there is many more walks that will fill you with appreciation of the land we live in. " — loganscott • Jan 6, 2021

"New Zealand. After 4 multi day packraft treks on the South Island we climbed this peak from Arthur's Pass. Went up and down via Scott's Track. Visited Devils Punchbowl Falls after and enjoyed a well-deserved meat pie next to an opportunistic kea." — Pieter • Feb 11, 2020

"Did a loop from the Woolshed Creek car park. Used the track system up to the summit. This took 4hrs including a break at Acland Shelter on the way up. On the summit I had a 10 minute snack and photo stop then descended over the tops in a westerly direction for about 4½ km's until I hit the track back down to the car park. In the bush I saw one deer close up and amidst scrubby bluffs saw one NZ falcon (Karearea) which screeched at me until I passed by. The wx was cloudy but fine and it was moderately windy thus not too hot!" — glennj • Jan 27, 2020

"It was great weather for the climb which we started from the coastal side of the mountain a 5km hike up. Suprisingly for summer the track was wet and muddy from about halfway up due to low cloud catching the forest. This is a tough climb, although my 6 year old made it, it was hard going for him due to the ups and downs of the track, the mud and having small legs slowed him traversing some tricky country. But it is worth the trip" — loganscott • Jan 26, 2020
