Zoomed in on Mount Goode. This is the north face, we will be climbing it's east slope.

This is the trail to Ruwau Lake off the main trail. When I was here last week, you could hardly tell that there was a trail here. This guy (didn't get his name) put in these steps.

Jay ahead waiting for us to catch up.

Don't know the name of these flowers, but I'm getting to like them. See them in a lot of areas.

We finally made it around to the east side of Mt Goode. This is the side we will climb.

This is where we left the main trail and headed towards Bishop Lake.

We decided to start the climb to the peak from the outlet to Bishop Lake.

We stopped here for a while to eat a snack before the start of the climb. Mt Goode in back.
