What an amazing challenge over christmas. A north to south adventure through the Jagungal wilderness and beyond.
Out for a day to navigate around and over Corang Peak in the beautiful Budawangs
What should have been a relaxing work became a little more difficult with heavy rain!
Knew that this track was here but never tried it out - my loss really its great and just 15 minutes from my house!
Any trip to the Jagungal Wilderness is a good trip, this one is no exception
After many years of hiking, and a false start last year, I finally get a chance to walk to the top of our country

Normally a track you would do in pieces, or even overnight. But as part of our Nepal training we decided to complete the journey in a single day, m...
Much bigger challenge that expected, this trip meanders along the Coxs River before hitting the challenge of Carlon Head to get to Narrow Neck.
Great challenge this trip with a lot of back country walking between Burumbeet valley and Styles creek valley.

A relatively easy hike, although some scrub bashing was required to make it to Endrick Trig.
Many times we have thought about camping on top of The Castle. This trip, we did exactly that

One of the biggest challenges I have embarked on, seven days of solo hiking from Katoomba to Mittagong

Spent many nights up in the Blue Mountains car camping, but hiking overnight was going to be a first for us here.

A relatively easy walk from the southern tip of the park (Guthega Power Station) up as far as Mawson's hut and back again, taking in the Kerrie's a...
The Budawangs are just a short drive from home, so attempting to climb The Caslte seemed like a logical decision.
With three hikes under my belt now, it was time to hit Kosciuszko again and try and reach the heights of Mount Jagungal via Pretty Plain and Grey M...
