My 4 year old hiked to the ridge last year. We just stayed on the wide portion and didnt go all the way to the top.

The above link has a good picture of how wide the ridge is for most of it. Its just the last bit that is a bit exposed. So as long as it wont ruin your day if you dont reach the top, do it and turn around if you get uncomfortable. This hike is worthwhile regardless.
Awesome! I will do it then.
I'm not too worried about the ridge, it's the climbing part that worries me. Just watched some youtube videos and it doesn't look too bad. Just have to sack up.
Any other beginner/easy scramble recommendations?
