Shortridge.

Its not short.. it is a ridge tho and it is brutal going down, less brutal going up. Whilst a very spectacular part of the walk it was made a little less enjoyable by the 34 degree heat 🙂

Here is a diptych of the ridge to give some perspective, the shot on the left is about a 1/3rd of the way up the ridge – I called this part the slow burn 🙂 The picture on the right is about 10 minutes from the top, which is via a channel/slot between some peaks.

The most daunting part of this part is the ability to see the path and knowing what is in store, the path way down the bottom a pencil thin line snaking over the ridge down to the river, which was certainly a welcome relief after many stops to rest the poor knees and thigh muscles.
