I thought to approach the Heathcliff crag from the normal car parking spot was a bit of a hike. Maybe carrying a full rack(!) on an unseasonal humid morning contributed.
Didn't compare to today - NPWS have the gate locked on Mt Hay Rd in the Blueys, due to slashing of trees and grass alike. So we decided to walk the additional 4.5km+ to the Fortress Ridge carpark, then do the normal 4km walk to the exposed rap station for Tom Thumb. It was a good day out though, back through drizzle in the dark.

Anyone else got stories of epic approaches? One I have had in mind for a few years is to climb the western face of Jagungal - looks steep enough from the S, and it would entail a ski in from Guthega power station at Munyang, probably over 1.5 days.
