Description:
As there are midterms spread around October, I'm doing a daytrip. This is a beginner-friendly one-day scrambling trip up to summit Brandywine Mountain. Ever since passing by it on my first trip with the VOC, I've always wanted to get back to it.

We will be going through Brandywine Meadows which is known for being beautiful, and the views I recall will be spectacular as well. It's about 1500m elevation gain I think, I'll check back and edit this if otherwise.

You will need good boots and a helmet(you can borrow them from the club), and maybe trekking poles for the way down as it is steep.
