8 Mar, Sat 8:00AM				Sheepdip canyon
Grade:4/6		Length	6km	200m	Sydney Branch
Mark G.
(Updated Details) Sheepdip canyon lies in the headwaters of Rocky creek canyon and is a fun creek walk with several short jumps, water slides and one abseil down a sloping cascade/ waterfall. Participants intending to join should be competent abseilers and must bring all the gear required for an abseil including harness, descender, helmet and wetsuit. From the base of this one abseil it is a pleasant walk down Rocky creek to the start of the tourist section. Co-leader is Adrian Barden. As is standard practice and because Adrian will be supplying the rope, there will be a $5 rope levy for wear and tear for everyone coming on this trip. rock scrambling and abseil Location: Wollemi NP Map: Rock Hill 89312N Limit: 8.

Grade:3/6		Length	10km	160m	Sydney Branch
John H.
This walk is a great adventure with spectacular coastal views and gorgeous coastal heath bushland to walk through. 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. Location: Royal National Park Map: Port Hacking 91294N Limit: 20. View

Once in the gully the walk follows the stream up into the canyon as it narrows and twists its way through the sandstone to the point where the canyon starts. Next the ridge east of the canyon will be followed to the cliff edges for views over the upper Grose River valley.
