Mansons Ladders

Mansons Ladders is the name given to the sets of chains on Carlon Head. The first set of footholds and pitons were installed by John (Jack) Manson and Len Scotland of the Sydney Bush Walkers on the June Long Weekend in 1941.¹⁾

The chains were replaced in or around June 1963²⁾, and likely on at least a couple of other occasions.
