Track

We ambled up the track through the grasslands, enjoying the view and conversation. I always love the contrast between the urban on the east and the undeveloped on the west. Sadly, the Kurrajong on the first, northern, hill has died since my last visit.

Down then up to the trig, map-marked as TG 26. My 50th hill for the CBC 50 Peaks in 50 Weeks event.

We next headed down to the bridge across Tuggeranong Creek and across to the Tuggeranong stone wall, which we followed down to its end near the Murrumbidgee River. A short arvo tea.

Back across the bridge, we wandered around the flank of the hills back to the cars.

A very pleasant and conversational ramble. Thanks to Paul E, John I'O, Neralie L, Stan and Isobel L, Jonathan M, Teresa M, Craig R, Peter T, Edwina Y,
