Harry, Margot and I (Rory) will be running the Bushrangers Cave Return Hike this Boree.
This hike is a 2-3 hr walk starting at Mount Piddington and containing some stunning scenery.
You can read more about it here
Parts of this walk are fairly exposed, so please pack your hat and sunscreen. Make sure you’re prepared for all weather conditions, including rain & cold (please read the packing list). Long pants are recommended to defend against ticks and scratchy plants. While this is a beginner trip, you can expect some steep-ish sections and rough ground. Bring your adventurous spirit :).

Note: You need to be approved for the main Boree Log event to attend these trips. Please sign up for only ONE trip per day. If you get rejected you can then sign up for another trip, this just makes it easier for volunteer trip leaders.
