Orroral Valley

I love walking on wild and woolly days.  A 12k walk, mainly along the Cotter Hut fire trail but with a little off-piste search of a rocky outcrop for a cache.  Wind was  extreme, rain  was intermittent, with a bit of sleet thrown in.  Some Mtn bikers managed to sneak up on me which gave me a bit of a start, though they mentioned they were amazed to see me so far from anywhere.  In fact, one asked whether I lived around there !!!!!

Had a bit of a giggle to myself when I found the public convenience and then found, according to the door, it was  occupied!  Lots of roos along the way.  Another cache was found along a walking bridge that appeared to be in the middle of nowhere.  It was hard to take photos because of the almost  constant drizzle.  On the way out, I stopped by the Namadgi Lookout along the Bomboyan Rd, magic views from there but boy, that was an icy wind and yes, there was a cache hidden nearby.

A 14km stroll along the Murrumbidgee from Kambah Pool to Casurina Sands - almost!   My caching companion's 500th find.  Cool start to the day but it was amost one of those fake Spring days - beautiful, but when the sun went down, it did  get colder quickly.  My water ran out half way through the walk - too many backpacks and hydration packs confused me.  Still, 8 caches were done , BatGirl&Co's 500th and my very first platypus in the wild made for a great day!
