The Cable
The final 200 yards of ascend. The pair of cable railings and horizontal wooden rungs aid hikers to ascend this very steep final stretch... almost 45 degrees angle. Merely looking at the cable way and steep gradients send the chills down the spine of many, hence it is not uncommon that many hikers turn back here.
