12 Apr, Sat 8:00AM				Carne Creek and the “Flying Carpet”
Grade:5/6		Length	8km	300m	Sydney Branch
Anton
(Fully Booked - Ask leader about waiting list) Set against a great sheer cliff, a flat platform of rock seems to float out above the expansive Carne Creek Valley. This is the “Flying Carpet” and we will take a ride on it for magnificent views across the valley. Make sure you hold on! Time permitting, we will also have a look at some of the big caves and overhangs under the cliffs.  Group numbers are limited due to the short but tricky climb up onto the “Flying Carpet”, and I’m rating it a 5 simply due to this section. You’ll need to be comfortable using a long tape (provided). The rest of the walk is about a grade 4 being almost all off-track walk through gullies with open forest, big cliffs and at least one big cave. Steep rock scrambling with tape and off-track walking.

Grade:4/6		Length	8km	200m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
Not too far off the glow worm road is an amazing dissected plateau known as Rock Island which for the enquiring bushwalker, is a place of great interest! Topped with interesting pagodas and with various nooks, crannies and overhangs to explore, it's certainly worth the effort of getting there! rock scrambling Location: Wollemi NP Map: Mount Morgan 89311S and Cullen Bullen 89313N Limit: 15.

13 Apr, Sun 5:15AM				Edmund Gully, Joseph Creek and Carne Creek Traverse
Grade:5/6		Length	8km		Sydney Branch
Yuri B.
Find out why this part of the Gardens of Stone must be better protected for the future generations. Park some cars at around GR 427 121 on Glowworm Tunnel Road and drive the others to GR 425 094 on FT3. From here, walk to the lookouts at the end of the trail. Next, descend into Edmund Gully and find a way down into Carne Creek. Turn north under the cliff line and walk to the junction with Joseph Creek and then up that tributary to a short canyon-like exit 400 m upstream. Climb out on a spur at GR 422 102 and walk south to a lookout at the end. Now, turn back north and traverse above Carne Creek for as long as our time and interest allow, probably till around GR 417 117. Walk back to the parked cars and complete the shuffle. Partly exploratory. Scrambling and exposure. About 8 km. Location: Gardens of Stone SCA Map: Cullen Bullen 89313N Limit: 8. View

Coryah to name a few. Included within the park are some amazing locations such as Waa Gorge and Sawn Rocks all worth a serious look! I plan to seek and out and enjoy as many of the stunning features of this wonderful national park with 4 full days of walking plus time on the Thursday for a short hike after we arrive and another short walk on the Tuesday morning before we drive home. At Dawsons Springs and Bark Hut are excellent campsites with full shower amenities as well as gas BBQs for cooking and shelters/seating at the campsites.
