Event Report:
We had a cold start at 08.30.The heavy fog up at the dead horse gap track gave the surrounding an eery look. Soon the blue sky greeted us a little past the half way point. The track meanders up the hill through snow gum's, nice to see that there a lot of regrowth. At the bottom it is steep, once passed the gum's it levels out.
Twice we stopped for snack's and enjoyed the stunning view.
![]() ![]() I felt sorry for the many tourist/hikers who thought to ride up and walk down was the best way. We met them on top and again on the river walk. The downhill walk is a lot harder then walking uphill, most looked knackered and had sore knees. We of course had no such problems,
![]() Lunch was enjoyed by the river, and the walk back to the cars on dead horse gap was a breeze
