Club News Training Day

19 January 2008

John Brunott had a map reading training day at Daisy Hill which was well appreciated. The numbers of members attending was intentionally limited so that there could be a good ratio between learner and teacher. The short report received by the editor was that no one got lost and all returned to the rendezvous point OK. It sounded like a very successful day! Due to the popularity of such events, John is planning more training days in the next few months.

Calamvale Breakfast

3 February 2008

This was a social with a difference. A Birthday Breakfast for Gil. About 10 club members gathered at the hotel on a wet Sunday for the smorgasbord all you can eat! There were hot dishes, cold dishes, salads, desserts, hot and cold drinks and much more. A few members made several visits to the food line but eventually even Richard found enough to eat. It was actually a no contest as Bob G. wasn't there. Meanwhile Gil pondered aloud to one and all whether there was life after 60 (not that he is 60!!). The finale was a birthday cake and a song to cheer him up. Many Happy Returns Gil.

Leader Reimbursement At the Club committee meeting on 26/2/08, the following motion was passed: Any member who has led 5 or more walks in 2007 is entitled to full reimbursement of the cost of a Senior First Aid Course, a CPR Course or a refresher course in 2008. There are eight present members who are thus eligible; Danuta Gur, Richard Kolarski, Patricia Kolarski, John Brunott, David Rae, David Kenrick, Helen McAllister and Ken Walters. The committee will reimburse members who lead five or more walks in 2008 in a similar manner next year subject to budgetary constraints. Note that any member who has led or is planning to lead a walk is already entitled to a refund of 50% of First Aid course fees.

Group Activity Permits There was some confusion about Group Activity Permits (GAP) when QBW had its training day at Daisy Hill recently. A group activity is an organised use of an area managed by Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service (QPWS) in a way that may interfere with general public use of the area. Managed areas under QPWS control include recreation areas, state forests and national parks. For an organised use such as a concert, wedding or sporting event, a GAP form needs to be filled out, evidence of Public Liability cover shown, approval to be granted and a fee paid. A penalty up to $3750 applies. However for bushwalkers a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed between Queensland Federation of Bushwalking Clubs (now Bushwalking Queensland Inc) and Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service in December 2006. This covered several concerns that bushwalkers had, such as bush camping, track and campground closures and Group Activity Permits. The MOU states in part that most bushwalking activities do not require a GAP. The annual Pilgrimage where there may be more than a hundred walkers may be an exception. GAP's are definitely not required for party sizes less than 12. The procedure for any club wishing to do a group activity in a QPWS controlled area is to contact the Ranger in Charge directly and to let him/her know of the event. No GAP will need to be filled out. A copy of the MOU is available from the BWQ website at http://www.geocities.com/qfbwc/index.html

New Job for Bob Bob G. has taken up a new job at Ayers Rock. He will be missed both for his walks and good humour. His new email address is [email protected] so send him your favourite joke or the latest goss. He will be glad to hear from you.

Coming Events Larapinta Trail

Campsite Monitoring 5 - 27 July 2008

Three weeks of walking the 223 kilometre Larapinta Trail. This walking track runs from Alice Springs west to Mount Sonder along the backbone of the West MacDonnell Ranges. It visits the major tourist features like Simpsons Gap, Standley Chasm and Ormiston Gorge as well as many other features along the range.

The annual Campsite Monitors meeting was held at Daisy Hill on Saturday 2nd of February. Thirteen campsite monitors attended with Mark Burnham, a ranger at Brisbane Forest Park presiding as chairman. Ann Tracey, the co-ordinator on the bushwalking side was also present and thanked Mark and the other rangers who sent in letters of support.

The Trail takes in a variety of desert habitats as it meanders through sheltered gorges and climbs steeply over rugged ranges with numerous stunning views of the spectacular landscape. Numbers are limited on this trip so get in quick. There has already been a meeting to organize the trip and plane flights will be booked soon. Contact Mary Sherlock Ph No 3209 8514 for more information.

Accommodation options are a large area for tents, (limited) non-powered campervan and caravan sites, cabins with bunk beds and mattresses. Activities will include walks, bike rides, canoeing, and a bush dance in the Mt. Nimmel Hall. More info. and website details to be announced in March/April

BWQ Regional Meeting Bushwalking Queensland Inc. had its first regional meeting at Gatton on 22/2/2008. This was an opportunity for nearby clubs to see how BWQ operates and for members to ask questions direct to committee members. There were two members from Ipswich, three from Laidley, three from Toowoomba, two from Glasshouse, two from Family Bushwalkers, one from BOSQ and one from BBW. A simple but excellent snack was provided. The meeting went off extremely well, with a lot of positive feedback and ideas forthcoming. The quality of discussion was quite high, with some very curly questioning. There was a bit of concern expressed about the ramifications of risk management. However the president of BWQ was able to explain most of the questions and give some indication of progress in getting a handbook produced, which will be a guideline for clubs to follow. The open forum session highlighted the desire for reciprocal membership between clubs, which took BWQ by surprise. The possibility of a BWQ membership card was discussed. Incidentally, a similar view was aired at the Bushwalking Australia conference in Sydney, so maybe the time is ripe to follow this up. It could be done on a national basis, to allow total flexibility for walkers choosing inter-club walks anywhere in Australia. A very successful venture, and BWQ are proposing to have the next regional meeting in Glasshouse/Sunshine Coast area in 2 months time.

The meeting began with each campsite monitor giving a report on their particular campsite. It was intermingled with some lively discussion about each site and some questions to Mark. Photos of each campsite were an important factor as it could then be easily seen how a campsite had changed over the years. Photo reference points would need to be standardised so that photos of each campsite were always taken from the same position. One of the points raised was that there were still some campsites which did not have a monitor. A suggestion was put forward that clubs organising walks to these vacant sites could do the monitoring. Each monitor and bushwalking club members could also assist the rangers by reporting any weed infestation. EPA would look into providing a weed identification chart for bushwalkers. One suggestion that got approval was for more feedback. Mark would look at collating information into a bulletin/newsletter twice a year and emailing it to monitors. A ranger had attended Pilgrimage 2007 and this was much appreciated by bushwalkers. An invitation for rangers to attend the Pilgrimage in 2008 would be sought. This would be a good way for rangers and bushwalkers to exchange information. Also an invitation for rangers to participate in any club walks as a visitor was extended. It is good to see that QBW is well represented in campsite monitoring. Out of the 13 monitors present, six were from QBW. It shows a willingness by members to give something back. However more monitors are needed and any member wishing to find out more about campsite monitoring can ask any of the present campsite monitors listed on Page 2.

Past Walks Wilson’s Promontory

8-17 September 2007

About 6pm the rain began again so we had a quick meal and into our tents for the night.

Four club members spent a week at Wilson's Promontory and walked over 100 kilometres. Here is Patricia's report.

Tue 11

Sat 8 Richard and I drove down while Gail and Noelene flew into Melbourne and we met them at Leongartha on the Saturday afternoon. We stayed in a comfortable hut at Tidal River, two double bunks with full kitchen facilities and a covered verandah. The shower block was close by.

The walk from Little Waterloo Bay via Waterloo Bay up to the junction with the Telegraph Track was done in strong wind and squally showers. Many wildflowers were out and, as we neared the junction, burnt tea trees from the 2005 fires were everywhere, their twisted, gnarled trunks forming some very interesting shapes.

The Four of Us

After settling into the hut we gathered up some nibblies and a little wine and headed to Norman Lookout to watch the sun set over the ocean. Sun 9 Today was the start of our first three-day throughwalk. We drove up to the Telegraph Saddle carpark and began the 2.9km walk up to the saddle where we had a quick rest before continuing east and downhill, stopping along the way for morning tea and a quick exploration of a cave. When the ground flattened out, the boardwalk started and continued on across a currently dry swamp for about two kilometres until the coastal sand dunes began. Just a short up and over and we were at Sealers Cove for an early lunch. There is little to show of the history of this area except for the rotted pylons of the wharf that once existed here. The track continued on up to Hook Point, a headland giving great views north and east. Just a bit further on and we could see Smith Cove and beyond that Refuge Cove, our campsite for the night. There is a boaties camp at Refuge Cove with a display of wooden planks engraved with the names of yachts, etc that have visited here. Luckily, we had the campground to ourselves for the night. Surprisingly, three young Europeans came through the campground at 3.30pm carrying one small pack between them, no torch, and planning to complete the circuit back to the Telegraph Saddle carpark that night, a further distance of about 29km. Mon 10 Light rain began falling during the night and continued as we breakfasted. Fortunately the rain stopped about 9am so we completed packing up and set off for today’s destination, Little Waterloo Bay. Kersop’s Peak provided sweeping views south to Waterloo Bay and north to beyond Sealers Cove. We shared the campground with about a dozen students from a Melbourne high school. They were a bit noisy at first but after dinner they turned in early, thankfully. They were a tough group, though. Several of them went swimming and one girl washed her hair in the almost-freezing creek water while wearing a bikini!

Burnt Tree Esplanade

After morning-tea at the junction we had a 6.6Km walk with a 200m height gain back to the car along a gravel road, arriving just before midday. We passed a group of volunteers heading into the burned-out tea tree forest. They were monitoring the recovery of the area after the fire. Back to the Tidal River café for a much-appreciated fish and chips followed by a lovely hot shower. The Rangers are very strict about access times for the huts and we had to wait until 2pm to get the key to our hut. Wet gear was spread out over the verandah, any bushes and logs and on all available grass. Richard was left in charge as the three ‘girls’ headed for the nearest town of Yanakee for some items for Happy Hour. We were driving through the Park just on dusk and saw emus, kangaroos, a wombat and an echidna beside the road. We spent a very snug night in the hut, heater on and comfy mattresses under us. Wed 12 This was our ‘rest’ day between throughwalks so we strolled to Squeaky Beach under cloudy skies, returning to the campground for a take-away lunch from the café. Rested up in the afternoon and finished the day with an after-dinner walk looking for wombats until the cold drove us inside to the heater. Thur 13 Up, packed and off by 8.20am. Leaving the car in the campground we walked via Oberon Beach heading south to Little Oberon Bay with a side trip to Norman Point to admire the coastline and ocean views. Just before Oberon Beach we ran into some Rangers doing track work using a bobcat. They were doing a great job, rebenching and widening the track. Morning-tea at the Oberon Beach campground before walking along the sandy road to the Telegraph Track. It was a monotonous 3.4Km walk and seemed to take forever. The Halfway Hut was reached by late morning and we decided to have a quick lunch and press on with the intention of doing the walk from Roaring Meg to South Point and back after we set up camp. Up, up and more up we went. It was quite a long slog up to the high point before a short downhill to the Roaring Meg campsite.

Page 4 of 6

After setting up camp and resting for a short while, we all decided to do the extra 7.4Km return trip to South Point, making it a 25Km day, 17.6 with throughpacks. This turned out to be a fairly easy walk, mainly contouring around hills with just a few little ups and downs. The most southerly mainland point was cool and windy so we didn’t hang around too long.

Moreton Island T/W

3-4 November 2007

As the barge now leaves Whyte’s Island at 8.30am, it was a late start across the Desert to our shady morning tea spot at the Desert carpark. Thankfully a breeze was blowing as the day was warming up fast. This being Suzana’s first throughwalk, we were going to go to Rous Battery via the inland track and return the same way on Sunday. Just as well as the beach walk up the western side would have been very warm indeed.

Light House

The wind and cold sent us all into our tents well before dark. It was easy to see where the name Roaring Meg came from. The wind in the trees sounded like a freight train coming and continued most of the night. It was a looong night!! Fri 14 Sunny but cold in the morning as we had an unhurried breakfast and set out for our walk to the lighthouse 6.2Km south-east of the camp. Many photos were taken when we reached the coast and the lighthouse could be seen in the distance. The lighthouse area is of some historical significance and we spent some time wandering around examining the remains of buildings as well as exploring some interesting rock formations nearby. Unfortunately, the lighthouse itself and the buildings around it are accessible only to guests staying in the cabins (quite expensive). There are no facilities for day visitors and when the rain came down the Ranger kindly let us sit in a shed to have our morning tea, as there is absolutely no other shelter. Back to our tents and light rain began to fall by mid afternoon and continued on into the night. Richard and I cooked in our tent vestibule (very carefully!!), while Gail set up a creative shelter using a garbage bag and she and Noelene cooked under this. Another long night followed. Sat 15 We were off at a gallop this morning. Most of it was flat or downhill so we made good time and were back in Tidal River by midday and ready for lunch at the café, again. Once more we had to wait for the key. So unnecessary if the hut is ready! An uneventful afternoon followed. Sun 16 Last walking day today! We drove up to the Telegraph Saddle and walked up Mt Oberon. It was extremely windy at the top but the views were fantastic. We could see back down south and east to the areas we had walked in the past week. Even saw a three-masted schooner(?) down south between the mainland and Redondo Island. Lazed around with the Sunday papers for the rest of the day and did some packing ready for leaving tomorrow. Mon 17 Back to Leongartha to drop Gail and Noelene at the bus before Richard and I headed east for our drive back to Brizzie. This was a very enjoyable trip, great company, terrific photos and heaps of good memories. Thanks to my companions Gail, Noelene and Richard for sharing this experience with me. Patricia

Moreton Island

For company we had Murray, a new member, and his wife, Judy, and with June and Noelene that made six of us. We made slow progress across the island in the heat but were thankful for occasional cooling breezes. On arrival at Rous Battery I was pleased to see the grassy camping area was empty. It overlooks the ocean and the sea breezes are always blowing. The tracks leading among the remains of the Battery are being overgrown and it was a bit difficult to find the track to the big gun emplacement. Many spiders were disturbed as we wandered through the banksia bush looking for faint tracks. The old water pump has been replaced with a tap and a pump is now operated by solar power. The water looked very clear but we still treated it just in case. Suzana jumped in for a swim as soon as her tent was up and Murray soon followed. We explored a bit and then it was time to prepare our dinner. Someone forgot their torch and had to go to bed early but the others chatted on into the night. Sunday morning sunrise was around 5am and we were all up and ready to go by 6.50am, keen to beat the heat for the walk back. Our barge was leaving at 1.00pm and we needed to allow time to visit the ice cream shop before then. We made good time back to the road leading to the Desert and returned to the same spot as Saturday for a leisurely morning tea. No one was too keen to start the slog across the sand so we did a photo session for a while but then eventually had to put on the packs and head out. June had counted the steps up from the beach on Saturday and advised us that we had 300 to go down on the way back, but it was much easier going down, of course. The barge could be seen in the far distance when we reached the beach and, while some went into the resort in search of a shop, Murray and I continued on, shoes off, splashing in the cooling water. An uneventful trip back across the bay found us back at the cars by about 2.30pm. Thanks to everyone for coming and a special congratulations to Suzana who survived her first throughwalk. Patricia

Fraser Island T/W

9-14 November 2007

Fri 9 Two cars set off very early in the morning for the 300km plus trip up to River Heads with a breakfast stop at the bakery in Gympie. We were to catch the 10.15am barge across to Wanggoolba Creek. Here we were met by Steve in the taxi for an easy drive along the soft sand road into Central Station. The afternoon was spent relaxing and exploring the beautiful creek. We saw what was to be our only dingo, but what a scrawny example it was. In September the mosquitoes had almost carried us away but on this trip they were mostly pleasantly absent though the March flies had increased noticeably.

The Wabby camp is set amongst heaps of banksia and macrozamias. Each site has a platform for cooking etc and a dingo/rat box (as do all the other camps) and plenty of shade. Helen and I walked down to the lake but only Helen braved the cool water in what was then late afternoon. Mon 12 Our walk today was the longest of the trip taking us south along part of the track towards Lake MacKenzie before turning off and taking the old tramway to Pile Valley and then on to Central Station again; very pleasant walking with the time passing quickly as we admired the huge trees and general scenery. Another sandblow was visited and photographed along the way.

Sat 10 Today, our first walking day, we headed south past Lake Birrabeen (seen only at a distance through the trees) arriving at Lake Benaroon in time for morning tea and a swim for June and Ken while the rest of us swatted March flies instead.

Fraser Island Dingo

We had lunch at the end of the Pile Valley loop before taking the track that follows Wanggoolba Creek into Central Station. Rain was falling on and off as we walked but nothing could spoil the beautiful scenery along this lovely creek with its incredibly clean, clear water that flows gently along with hardly a ripple. At dinner time we decided to take advantage of the large covered shed in the day use area as rain was again threatening.

Fraser Island

On to Lake Boomanjin, our camp spot. The two kilometre walk around the lake crosses some interesting tannin-stained run-off from the surrounding dunes. Redencion did this part of the walk at a very steady pace, resting in the cooler shade of every tree she could find!! I went to find her but she was close by, flat out on the sand (reminded me of Paul!). It was hot but not as bad as Kerry’s walk a couple of months earlier. A dip in the lake to wash off the sweat was fast indeed as a cool wind was blowing strongly across the water. The walker’s camp is fenced and spacious. We found some interesting flora in the surrounding area. Best of all, we had the campground to ourselves. Ken had been bitten by a tick earlier on and the reaction began to look serious. His forearm began to puff up like Popeye’s. What a bunch we were. Helen had damaged her shoulder and was taped up, June had hurt her side in a bike accident and was wary of taking deep breaths, Gail had suspected food poisoning the weekend before and hadn’t been eating, Redencion was still coming to grips with the weight of her pack, and now Ken was down. That left only me in one healthy piece. Sun 11 Our goal for today is the Lake Wabby walker’s camp, not as big a goal as it seems as we were only walking out to Dilli Village where the reliable Steve was to taxi us right up to the Day Use area above the lake!!!! We had a stop at the sand blow along the way and enjoyed the views out towards the east coast. Ken not sleeping well and his arm is now bigger, red and hot. He soldiers on, though, but is a bit quiet. Thankfully, Redencion is now striding out and setting a good pace. We arrive at Dilli Village early and Gail has a swim in a lovely pool in the creek beside the University camp. A shower passes over before the taxi arrives but we are still a happy bunch, squashed under a tree for shelter. The drive up the beach in light rain was uneventful but as we turned inland the road roughened up quite a bit and it was with relief that we finally reached the camp. Again we had the place to ourselves for the night.

Tue 13 Today we headed for Lake MacKenzie with a swim stop along the way at the picturesque Basin Lake. The hordes were here during the day, of course, but it was just us again in the walker’s camp overnight. We met the Rangers here and they kindly offered to carry out our rubbish but, with only one night to go, we were happy to cart our own stuff out. We had taken advantage of the bins at Central Station, anyway. We dined at the Day Use tables on our last evening together. Us and the March flies, that is!! Wed 14 Helen and Redencion were to take the taxi out to Kingfisher Resort later this morning so Gail, Ken and I set off just before 7am, carrying only water bottles and munchies, and a first-aid kit, leaving our throughpacks to be carried in the taxi. Seeing we were traveling so light, we decided to take the longer track via the Commando school and McKenzie’s jetty (very interesting). Good views back across to River Heads from the cliffs above the jetty. We made very good time, even with Gail’s dizzy spells, and June’s photography demands, and arrived in time to meet the taxi. Our first priority was to visit the bakery for coffee and goodies followed by a wander around the gift shop. Then it was off to the day visitor’s bar and pool for a relaxing couple of hours swimming and eating (huge meals, great food), laughing, and reminiscing about a trip that was already in the past!! After an uneventful barge trip back to the cars, we headed south again, this time stopping for afternoon tea at the Gympie bakery. Luckily peak hour had passed by the time we reached Brisbane so the final part of the drive was without dramas. I would like to thank (alphabetically) Gail, Helen, June, Ken, and Redencion for their company on this fabulous trip. It is not just the journey, but also your companions along the way, that make a walk enjoyable and memorable. Thanks to you all and a big thanks to Gail for driving.
