What are your thoughts on camping near the summit? The forecast looks as though the weather should be mild enough, but I'm not sure on water. I've read there's supposed to be a gully 500m south of the summit that has water, but tossing up whether it would be better to camp near Michell after climbing the staircase.

That last push from the tree line up to the summit plateau is a gut buster, so maybe if there's easy to source water at the top, go for that and avoid the extra weight?
