Latest submitted climbing notes
Difficulty: Moderate to Hard depending on physical fitness
Duration: Approximately 40 minutes to an hour climb up, 20 mins (recommended time) for photos and volcano experience, less than 30 mins down. Timing-wise may look and sound easy but there are certain steep spots with loose volcanic rocks along the climb that can ware you down easily so be mentally and physically prepared and don't underestimate the climb before you start.
Clothes: Wear light pants (long/short is okay). Proper closed shoes (hiking shoes). Hats and sun glasses are necessary.
Recommended time to spend top according to the Volcanologists at Rabaul Volcano Observatory, is 20 mins.
Avoid the cracks on the edge of the caldera at all times when you are up there.
Along the track, the volcanic rocks are rather sharp. Watch where you put your hands for support.
Bring a lot of water and drink a lot of water especially when you're climbing during the day when the sun is really hot. Also bring along a can of regular coke or any sugary soft drinks or a candy bar just in case you dehydrate and need sugar. If you have access to electrolytes, bring them along.
Altitude sickness or dizziness is normal about 3 quarters of the way up. We have had a good number of climbers experience that. We just let them rest, drink water, close their eyes and regain their mental balance and then we continue. Not too sure what others do. I am no expert but this is what I have done from the many experiences I have had along the climb.

Having climbed Bluff almost 20 times, I have to agree - the cooler months (April - Oct) are way easier, especially given that the shade canopy was destroyed by fire a couple of years ago.
Once you hit approx 2/3rds up and you hit a sharp left . . the weather may change drastically. Please take note of this - this mountain has almost claimed my life twice in severe weather, she takes no prisoners on the final stretch when the weather is bad.
If you are in any way unsure or not a confident climber prepared to stay the night at the top . . be very mindful of changing conditions from 900m and up.
I can concur though . . . beware of Drop Bears.

One if not the steepest hikes in the Sierra range
at 54% is no joke! be prepared
from Saddlebag, go left, go up waterfall - stay close to the greens!
After the lakes and rocks you climb straight up to the top......so.......
Once you Pass several glacier lakes, make your route over the giant rock that sticks into the lake, it is tough and steep, possible to go on left side but you'll need to end up on this side by the tree line, there is NO Trail at this point - it is giant boulders - field of, be careful! continue up - it will be mostly VERTICAL in Very difficult fine gravel with some large rocks that may fall on your ankle, BEWARE. You will be leaning forward due to the angle.
Once at the top, it is totally flat like mars, but you can see the rim curve to Conness Glacier and walk on it - super cool. You can see a tiny little glacier lake that has likely never been visited down the crevice.
VERY REWARDING, MAGICAL and TOUGH
GEAR NEEDED - boots or shoes with gaiters at a minimum!
Trekking poles will be very helpful!
Leather gloves could be very useful
ROPE can help in case as this gets VERY steep!
