The south of Lord Howe Island

During my visit to Lord Howe Island I took a side trip to the saddle between the two mountains at the south, Mt Gower and Mt Lidgbird. Trips to the area were possible only with a guide, as it was necessary to traverse a precarious ledge around the cliffs known as the "Lower Road" (identified by note). I understand there are fixed ropes along this ledge now, in those days it was 'just hang on and be careful'.

I think you'd find it almost entirely unchanged (apart from the airstrip).
