I convinced my buddy Matt to join me to tick off another peak off my list, this time Mt Kidd.
It starts with an innocuous easy hike from Galatea to the start of the scramble and goes across
a sweet suspension bridge.

Matt thought this hike was pretty rad. Not sure about this face though.

The waterfalls here were pretty awesome.

We had no problem finding the chains and zipping through here. While not necessary, they made
this section a lot simpler.

Yeah, so this was where the actual scrambling started. We decided to veer a bit further to climber's
left and start to avoid this mess though.

Matt says this rock is just fine. A bit loose to be fair, but pretty cool.

A neat shot as I make my way up to the summit and the helipad and the weather station.

It's hard to give perspective here to how steep the scree is.

We wound up a bit off route on the way down, although the GPX said we were spot on. Too much loose
rock for me to say I want to do this route again.
