Hi Steve,
Sorry to hear the Segaria didn't work out for you today.
Reaching the start of that section of the ridge is awkward and really has no clear / obvious way and it is difficult to even aim for anything ahead. Of all the route descriptions I wrote for the guide, this was the most challenging by far and I did scratch my head about it quite a bit. The issue, as you have now experienced, is the nature of the terrain. Lots of spiky vegetation, broken ground, and generally difficult to navigate.
I have so far not come across the small cave, although Segaria does seem to have loads of them all over it.
Possibly the inclusion of a photo of the 'Impressive terrace' could be of help, although IIRC this may not be obvious on the section of approach you were having trouble on.
When I'm back in the area I'll have another good look at this approach and update the Cicerone website if I can make any improvements. Will try and dig out a photo of the 'impressive terrace' and add that too.
Thanks for the feedback. Hope you had a great time over there.
Mark
