I have limited time to get out due to work, so I'm looking for a report on what it's like/if it's worth going. I'll probably make the trip out to west of the Cougals eventually as part of scouting a route for a Scenic Rim Traverse (now that The Cream Track is closed). If I was told it was an interesting spot to explore, I'd prioritise a trip there sooner, and that's why I asked.
On a related note, I ascended the opposite side of Springbrook via Mt Tenduragan, for similar reasons to a trip west of the Cougals, and found it was full of wait-o-while. The worst of the vines could be avoided by not doing a detour to Tenduragan's summit. It was not as steep or slippery as
previously described by some, and was pink taped most of the way. There were some good views and interesting shale-like geological formations on the Tenduragan-Mumdjin saddle and some nice, but small, caves at the botton of the Western Cliffs of Springbrook proper.
