The Lions

The Lions in Lions bay, the forecast said clearing in the afternoon.
Kurt, Ricky, Claire and I started hiking around 10 ish and we got to the top of the hike before the scramble around 130 or so, we could not see a thing. It was suppose to be 'blueing' but after waiting it was doubtful, so we headed down. We got about one third of the way down and it started to 'blue' so we turned around and summited.


The four of us where the blueing began
