16 Mar, Mon 10:00AM				Bundeena – Jibbon Head – The Balconies – Bundeena.
Grade:4/6		Length	10km	141m	Sydney Branch
John H.
(NEW!!!) This walk is a real favourite and a great adventure. It has spectacular coastal views and gorgeous coastal heath bushland to walk through. Though shown as a grade 4, because of the push through bushes to get to the rock platform and a bit of a scramble up an eroded track, most of the walk would be grade 2. Starting at Bundeena we walk along the beach and tracks to Jibbon Head, visiting the Aboriginal engravings on the way. We will mostly walk along the rock platform towards the Balconies where we join the coastal track back to Bundeena. There is a steep climb from the last beach up to the headland along an eroded track that requires a bit of a scramble. Booking essential giving your mobile, emergency contact and NPA numbers unless I already have them. It could be slippery and possibly slushy in places. Uneven rock surfaces. It is exposed and a more inland route, through sandhills could be taken if the weather is unsuitable for the coastal route. Some street walking in Bundeena.

The Explorergaine is a 6-hour rogaine being held on Sunday 29 March at Mt Victoria on the western edge of the Blue Mountains, mostly on bush tracks. The event has a strong historical theme and is also a fundraiser for the Australian Himalayan Foundation. The course explores the first routes off the mountains dating back to 1813. There are outstanding views over the Megalong Valley, Hartley and across to the Great Divide. Expect a surprisingly complex choice of bush tracks both close to the Hash House and for the fit and strong down to Hartley Vale. This event has something for everyone. Whether you’re a seasoned rogainer or a newcomer looking to explore a new area this is an event not to be missed. Teams of 2 to 5 members.

3 Apr, Fri 8:00AM				Birds Rock to Hippo Rock pagodas and Carne creek lookout
Grade:3/6		Length	16km	200m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
The Broad Swamp to Birds Rock walking trail is a 17km new track which is part of the 30km Gardens of Stone SCA walking trail, which is due to be finished before the end of this decade. I was planning on doing this section one way but unfortunately the Broad Swamp section with the carpark is closed until just after Easter, whilst new facilities are being established. So instead I'm doing the more spectacular section of this trail starting from Birds Rock and including Hippo rock and the stunning Carne creek lookout and nearby pagodas. Basically we will experience the best section of this track so you won't be disappointed. However, if there is a miracle and the infrastructure is finished by Easter, then the original plan of walking from Broad Swamp to Birds Rock will still stand. But I doubt it!
