Great video, interesting to see all the unique flora up on that mountain.

Thanks for your comments. We started at the end of the Old Mount Lindesay Highway which turns off the current highway several kms before you reach the border tick gate. We went up the steep SE ridge to the base of the cliffs. The route starts from there.

I'm obsessed with Jalgumbun. I read in Allan Cunningham's Journal that on the way to finding 'Cunninghams Gap' in July-Aug 1828, Cunningham, Captain Logan, and George Fraser came across Mount Hooker (renamed Lindsey) and Mount Barney (originally called Lindsey). Cunningham wrote he saw Captain Logan climb Mt Hooker(Lindsey) aswell as running into local aboriginals who spoke of climbing the mountain semi-regulary.

Thanks for your comments. Regarding Mt Glennie and the pinnacle, Glennies Chair: the pinnacle was first climbed way back in 1928 but has very few ascents that I am aware of. It's difficult to access which might be one reason but because it's hidden on the side of Mt Glennie, it perhaps doesn't attract quite so much attention. As I understand it, there is a network of old forestry tracks that wind up through that area which might be worth looking at if you are considering visiting the peak.

Great video, thanks. What a mountain (I'm not a rockclimber). Do you guys know if anyone has ever been up onto Mount Glennie which lies to the east of Lindsay? I haven't been able to find any posts of any kind on the whole net, let alone KZitem. I even messaged the Northern Rivers Bushwalkers and they haven't been there. It remains a mystery mountain that no one ever goes to.

Hi Joshua…no stings to report but several of us had tiny, needlelike thorns from the many small prickly shrubs embedded in our hands…it took me weeks to eventually dig them out with a needle! 🤣
