On my own - because I was going to Toastmasters in Perth later on the same day.
A long walk in, and it was nice to see the bothy. I met a guy who'd stayed the night there so there were still some burning embers on the fire :-)
Got to the top fine, but no views - there was cloud above about 700m. Came back via the other part of the loop and got back to the car sooner than I though I would. Was also lucky with timing as it started raining heavily as soon as I was changed and back in the car!
