Great Video! I love hiking Mt Barney. I think its actually easier going up south east ridge and coming down peasants. Feels more direct and you get the beautiful sunset on the peak. Logan's ridge is fun too!

RJCOutdoors A mate and I have done this route as a day trek...absolutely awesome. But also definitely get the adrenaline pumping!

[@pauldurham6801]

Good video well done. Have done Barney a few times but now I’m 65 thinking twice about doing again!

[@SonsofAdventure]

[@warefairsoda]

Great video. Thanks for clarifying the two southern routes.

[@jasonthwaits9206]

great video! I'm definitely following in your footsteps over the next few weeks

[@mitchellwilks5164]

Plan on tackling this next week, this gives me a good idea on what to expect. Thanks

Mitchell Wilks take lots of water mate as it will be hot up there and there is no water on the way.

[@salimy_photography]

[@NoBody-ht1oh]

Thanks for sharing that mate

[@roughnecktrekker1976]

Mitch, it's a tough hill but worth the effort. Take lots of water if you are tackling it in summer. Good luck.

Where did you buy the Nemo Meta?
Just trying to get an idea of the cost and can't find an outlet in Australia. Thanks again.

[@roughnecktrekker1976]

Herbshirt I purchased it online via EBay from the US. It was about $500aud

[@Jay-hr9ci]

cool

[@Sherlock245]

Is this harder then mt greville? And is Barney recommended for exp climbers,?

[@dalemullane8053]

Barney is a huge step above Greville! Do not underestimate it! Yes Barney is recommended for very fit and experienced hikers however, if you find someone who's done it before, they can show you the way.

[@herbshirt6073]

I'll have to add that one to my list. What kind of tent is that @5:40 ?

[@roughnecktrekker1976]

Herbshirt it's a Nemo Meta 2P trekking pole tent. Super light and roomy for its weight. Weighs under 1kg.

[@herbshirt6073]

Under 1kg?! That's amazing. I'll have to check it out.
Thanks for the reply.
