Pewsey Vale to Greenock

A catch-up walk with Hilary, she is set to complete the Heysen Trail for a second time next year. We finished the Trail together back in 2008.

Pewsey Vale to Greenock

Today's walk was a sharp contrast to the conditions we did the original walk in back in December of 2007 when it was very hot.

Sorry, no photos or GPS map, stuff was stolen.

Grampians - Mt Difficult and Briggs Bluff Circuit

The climb up to Mt Difficult from Troopers Creek is a tough one, but rewarding. The loop around to Briggs Bluff via Long Point is also beautiful - all a very rewarding walk.

The 470m climb up to Mt Difficult, is, um, difficult. The trail follows follows the cliff face up. I guess it is a long, steep climb, which is where the difficulty comes in.

We hiked the circuit out to Long Point and around to Briggs Bluff, then back to Mt Difficult, in one day. It was a long weekend, there were many people out, some doing day walks, others camping overnight.
