A day-walk in beautiful granite forest, possibly visiting Barry Falls and two remote geocaches. Great views, as far as WA(!).The map here gives a vague idea of where we'll walk this time.

Meeting place to be advised, assuming Kangaroo Crossing is uncrossable - probably at the Tavern in Eldorado at 9.30am. Length approx 10km, some steep, some thick patches, but worth it! About half on 4wd tracks, half in teh bush. Limit of 12 participants with a waiting list of 4 if required. This will be shorter than the 2013 walk, we're all 9 years older!
