Passage Peak - a photo on Flickriver

Passage Peak

            Looking up at the 4am sky from my villa I could see a mix of stars and cloud. I was excited to say the least. I knew it was a tough 60min walk up the mountain so I jumped straight into the buggy and drove down to the start of the trail. At this stage excitement overcame me with a surge of adrenaline I raced up the mountain dodging frogs and spiders by the light of my trusty headlamp. 

I climbed the final set of steps a full hour before sunrise. The scene that revealed itself was breath taking. After spending the next 2 hours with the view I made my way back down the trail to enjoy the rest of my last day on Hamilton Island. It had been an incredible experience.
