The icy East West fire trail had mostly melted and turned to slushier clay by the time we had summited Collins Bonnet, so the going was faster to the beginning of the Trestle Mountain ascent. The boulder strewn trail, where some beautiful lichens and fungi were on show, was well marked with green plastic star pickets and cairns making navigation to the the top stress free. The summit itself was a narrow ridge giving awesome 360 degree views all over south-eastern Tasmania.
