Access
See the Brandywine and Brew access. Take the Dority Creek spur at ~3km. This spur is ill-defined; to find it turn right off the man road towards the horizon, that being defined as that part of the northern sky line with no trees on it.
Route
Head across the slash towards a left hand knoll, past an old bus (may be buried) and continue into a small gully below the knoll. At the end of the gully drop down left to Dority Creek, then head back up through open forest until on a broad ridge. Stay slightly to the left until the slash above Brandywine road is seen. Swing right to avoid bluffs then continue up the ridge to Metal Dome.
