A technical climb with many hairpin corners and exposed rocks to catch you out - a good challenge to take the mind off the screaming legs.
Starts off of the Munda Biddi trail and merges with Drago at the 4 way junction where you either take Mother-in-Law to the top of Gunjin, or continue on Rocky Balboa to take either Mercury St or Luvin Shovels which head back towards the Dell.
