  • NSW: Sunday December 19th: Newnes State Forest

    Ok folks we'll head out to our favourite forest near Lithgow this Sunday We'll probably just do the easy stuff & maybe some sightseeing, also this will be the last trip before Christmas so we can have a nice lunch with an ale or two if you want (absolutely NO driving under the influence if you are drinking super :!: ).

    Weather forecast is saying possible shower & 19 C so it should be OK.

    PLEASE READ THE DISCLAIMER BELOW; IF YOU CHOOSE NOT TO AGREE TO THE TERMS SET OUT THEREIN THEN PLEASE DO NOT ATTEND. THIS INCLUDES PRADOPOINT MEMBERS & THEIR FAMILIES & FRIENDS!

    viewtopic.php?f=29&t=5215

    Unfortunately the Disclaimer topic is MIA, but basically neither myself or the administrators of Pradopoint.com accept no responsibility for the actions of those who attend the trips; you bust your vehicle or yourself it's your problem :!:

    Meeting at: McDonalds at Richmond, corner of March & Market Sts. at 8:30am, departing around 8:45am We will head west up Bell's Line of Road & stop at the Zig Zag railway carpark & air down tyres.
    Finishing time is whatever you want but we usually go to around 5 or so.

    Bring: Prado, camera, morning/afternoon tea, lunch, air compressor/recovery gear if you have it, sense of adventure!

    UHF Channel 19 We won't use Ch 16 as the miners in the area use it.

                          Trip Report

                          Another fun day out at Newnes State Forest. Weather was very cool today with the wind picking up around lunchtime. We did some of the usual tracks so Declan could get some driving experience. I'm sure he had a good time today :!: 8)

                          Air down at the Zig Zag carpark



                          Then over to the wombat holes of course Plenty of other vehicles there also including a 4wd Hiace van that made it up just before we got there! Jeff is here having some fun





                          Then over to the mudhole



                          Then to Sunnyside lookout where we stopped for lunch. Incredible scenery overlooking the Wolgan Valley











                          Over to Birds Rock









                          We then followed the track to end up at Carne Creek gorge





                          Then up to Bald Hill trig



                          Back to the carpark to air up



                          Video #1

                          Video #2

                          Thanks to Jeff & Declan for coming along today, always good to get out bush in the fresh air 8)
