Isolated Peak (Mt Barney) - when things don't go as planned - a 13 hour ordeal!

We set out to climb Isolated Peak (North East Rock) at Mt Barney based on a trail I found on Wikiloc. I had done some additional research on the options and all options seemed pretty challenging. We made it to Isolated Peak and headed down the other side to the saddle and then determined that we would head left down the ridge, per my original plan and based on the Wikiloc route. Well it seems that the climb down the ridge required abseiling and despite trying with a rope we couldn't get down the last little bit, it was too risky (I tried). So we had to backtrack up to the top of the ridge and then determined we would go back over Isolated Peak to the car, the way we came. We lots at least 2-3 hours due to having to backtrack and it made for a 13 hr day. It was brutal. Some great scenery though and view points of the peaks of Barney that I hadn't seen before which was great. Another great adventure.

Good video mate. When i did isolated peak we came up left side then went straght down towards eagles then diverted off into the gully to the right there, which lead us to the top of barney waterfall. Found it safer that way just a bush bash going through the gully!. Good to see you got off safely

It was evident when we got to the ridge and exiting that the route included abseiling but the notes on Wikiloc didn't mention this, which would have been handy. There was another option to try and get down the ridge on the other side but from having a look it seemed impossible also. I'm thinking of going up there again to check it out from the bottom side (ascending) to see what it's like.

Yeah great footage Dallas. Do you have a gpx for this route? I would really interested to see where you got to. Some of the peak names you are using are not on my map either?

I took the same exit, I had a fun time trying to stay alive as well, not sure where you got stuck but there was no abseiling on this route. Half way down I got off the ridge and then things became sketchy fast.
