    Re: NSW: Sunday Jan 23 Newnes/Ben Bullen State Forests

    Another great day out of course :!: Perfect weather for todays trip.

    We stopped at the Zig Zag to air down



    Then went to Blackfellows Hand Rock to look at the aboriginal hand stencils. The track was badly eroded but we got through OK.



    We then climbed the mountain to the Baal Bone Gap trail, stopped at the lookout for lunch. Fantastic views over the Wolgan Valley









    Then continued along the track. Some interesting descents & bogholes were encountered along the way









    We followed Moffitt's Trail until the end & came out near the Ben bullen railway crossing. Time to pump up tyres



    Thanks everyone for coming along today, I think it was our first all 90 series day :mrgreen:
