Gumtop Ridge Under Snow Walked along Ringwood Trail on Gumtop Ridge and removed t he Elishas Tears growing in a small wet area below Mt Marian. Quite heavy snow had fallen overnight so conditions were not ideal for the job, but it was beautif ul and fascinating to be there. Although only one plant was thought to remain at the site, we did find several and had to clear snow away in order to get at the multi-trunk bushes. If you want to see what it was like up there check out the photos are at http://home.iprimus.com.au/pjfranklin/marian

Walk

Walk to Mt.Direction Sunday 3 June 07 Cloudy but mostly fine, with just a touch of very light drizzle for a couple of brief moments. Arrived at Risdon Brook Dam to find a big group of Pandani walkers and another of HWC all going to Grasstree Hill, so changed our walk from there to Direction. On walking over the plateau below Mt Direction we noticed another big group of walkers, that we later discovered were the Eastern Shore Ramblers. Between them they had about 50 people.
