    Sorry I'm waffling here's a couple quick pics of my mate quartering the spiker, he makes it look easy and he's strong as an ox.

    Then to my supprise he puts all 4 quarters into his tatonka bison pack and only the fillets, back steaks and trim go into my pack, I can't say it enough my mate is a beast he throws the pack on and we start powering up the tussok face steady pace at first as the light was as already fading, then 20 to 30 meters at a time, then 5 minutes rest then the next 20 meters. Small achievable goals
    Here we are on one of many rests on the way up.

    The last time I attempted a decent and climb like this I had a bad fall and had to be helicoptered out.
    This day was a huge confidence builder. We made it.
    We made our way off the hill and hung the quarters in the chiller.
