Grade:5/6	Length	6km	340m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
This walk will take us to a system of creeks and waterfalls where timber cutters used to roam and although the stumps are still there to see, there's so much to explore in this region that will keep us occupied for many an hour. Lots of Tafoni weathering amongst a boulder glade and some very strange shaped rocks to climb and some stupendous huge trees to admire and all this very close to Bilpin, off the Mountain Lagoon road. offtrack and rock scrambling Location: Wollemi NP Map: Mountain Lagoon 90313S Limit: 12.

(SWAG) Esther
LEADER: Heather Lakiss: RSVP direct to heatherlakiss@gmail.com Artarmon to North Sydney walk. This is the report from a previous walk: Immediately upon exiting Artarmon Station a bush track hugged the railway line and led to a clearing where gigantic carved gumnuts idly lay. At Hallstrom park beautiful sandstone sculptures of animals paid homage to Hallstrom’s involvement in Taronga Zoo. Nearby Walter Burley Griffin’s Incinerator had been recycled - into a cafe and a gallery. Heather recited poetry at Henry Lawson’s Cafe before we continued to Tunks Park for morning tea. A delightful finale was St. Thomas Rest Park, an historic cemetery. St. Leonards Park for lunch then home via the Metro. Limit: 10. View

9 May, Sat 8:00AM			Sunnyside Canyon, the Acoustic chamber and Foxs Wedge
Grade:4/6	Length	7km	200m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
Sunnyside canyon is essentially a dry canyon although you might get wet feet. It is characterised by some amazing chambers along its length, with Acoustic being the biggest and most spectacular. As you enter the canyon there are some superb pagodas which are also worth exploring too, but the most stunning formation is along the cliffs to the west of the canyon itself. This rocky outlier is called Foxs Wedge and it is indeed a sight to behold! On this trip there will be plenty of time to explore the various nooks and crannies of the concentrated and fascinating location. rock scrambling/offtrack walking Location: Gardens of Stone NP Limit: 12.

On Day 3, we will strike the camp and find a way up through the cliffs to the north west and to the pagoda-studded tops. After establishing a camp at around GR 335 910, we will explore the ravine to the north with day packs only. The aim will be also to find water. On Day 4, we will traverse the Tal Tal Range northwards till GR 321 930 or GR 310 941, where I expect to find passes back down to Lee Creek and the vehicles. About 30 km. Mostly exploratory.
