Hello Murray Valley Bushwalkers members

With summer just around the corner we are gearing up for evening activities. We started the evening walks with a dramatic walk along the Kiewa river into where it joins the Murray last Wednesday. The drama came in the form of stormy weather. Fortunately we escaped unscathed but the heavy rain took a toll on Joy's iphone.

This Wednesday Nov 16th evening we will be walking from Doctors Point to Eastern Hill and return

And we will be paddling the Murray (the 4th canoeing event this spring) again this thursday evening - Nov 17th

Previous paddling experience is desirable but not essential. We can teach you what you need to know. The cost will be $10 and there will be a catered for bbq after the event at a cost of $3 to $4. Please bring along a salad to share with others.

As always you can use the booking enquiry link on the right of event details pages or contact Tony by any of the ways listed in the event details if you wish to join us.

The club's Facebook group now has 17 participants - its a great way to keep up to date with whats happening particularly as events get scheduled and postponed at short notice - its a closed group which just means you have to request to become part and receive the messages that others in the group post. If you would like to be added to the group you can message Peter, Hans or Tony.

Hans is still keeping up the pace offering easy walks on the weekend - last saturday 5 people walked the first half of stage 6 of the Hume and Hovell track. As always you can see photos of this events on the clubs flickr site.

This coming weekend Hans continues his exploration of waterfalls and lakes with an easy walk in the cool at Bogong village

And on Sat Nov 26th join us for breakfast at the Kinross Woolshed in Thurgoona followed by a walk around the CSU campus led by Dianne Ryan

Hope to have you join us for any or all of whats on offer this month!

regards

Hello Murray Valley Bushwalkers

Welcome to the 3 most recent members - Vijay Kumar, Barry Hutton and Claire Briggs - the next member will be our 50th - a cause for celebration. So members and guests are invited to a short evening walk at Baranduda on Dec 14th followed by a byo bbq at Tony and Jenny Marsh's place - 4 Jamison Drive Baranduda.

Im pleased to announce that Club member Neil Brown is offering a weekend of abseiling at Mt Tabletop on Dec 17/18 Neil has been guiding me on abseiling activities in three locations in the last fortnight and I must say this is a wonderful and safe activity that we are thrilled to be able to offer.

Last week's after work walk on Wednesday was at Huon Hill - the views and the new signage and trails laid out by Parklands Albury Wodonga made it a great walk. Nine of us got lucky with the after work paddle on thursday just avoiding the  heavy rain that followed and caused the postponement of Dianne Ryan's Thurgoona stroll on the Saturday

This Wednesday Nov 30th evening we will be walking up McFarlane Hill meeting at the carpark on Felltimber Road at 5-45 pm

And we will be paddling the Murray (the 6th canoeing event and first for summer) again this thursday evening - Dec 1st -
