Mount Glenrowan : June 1

Today’s walk was to have been at Killawarra, but a quick check on the ground at that venue showed a very slippery road access, and a slippery walking track. For this reason the venue for the bushwalk was moved to Morgans Lookout at Mount Glenrowan. On a very cool morning, we met at Rotary Park…

Ingrams Rock : May 28
