That river bend is beautiful, I've yet to visit the park but looking forward to one day. Do you know what the off track walking is like? Thanks for sharing.
Most of my walking in the park is off track. The conditions vary. Along the ridge tops it's usually easy. Around some gullies and areas protected from too much heat it can be thick. It's often very steep country and can be very rocky, even in areas with sparse vegetation. Are you aware that the Tugalong section of Guula Ngurra is only open to the public one more time this year? October 19th is the final day until March 1st.
@@AJAllchin I'll be out there on the 19th doing volunteer work with the NPWS. I'm also going to be seeking permission to go on the last Saturday in October, the 26th. If I advise them in advance and give a rough plan for the day, National Parks allow me to visit on days closed to the public.
Great video. Thanks for sharing... Gives a great sense of the beauty and pristine quality of the creek, and also what's involved in off-track bushwalking. Such an atmospheric spot. It is fascinating to imagine the community that lived there... how they got their food, how they entertained themselves, and why they chose such a remote spot. I have taken both the lovely trek up the creek that you did and also the insane scrub-bash from the Dam road and both routes are incredibly challenging - so it is incredible that people decided to live there. I think you must be right about the proximity to the Dam..... perhaps an option for people that picked up work there but couldn't afford (or didn't qualify for) accommodation there. Some of the levelled areas have the same design as spots along the Dam road near Heathcote and so perhaps a similar provenance. Actually my favourite spot on the walk up Myuna Creek is the second upstream pool and the incredible expanse of flat bare rock on the creek bed... magical!
I followed it downstream. There was no track, I just followed the creek. Thanks for reminding me of this walk. It was a very interesting and beautiful walk.
Is the confluence of Camp gully ck and Hacking River easyish to access? I wouldn't mind doing a waterbug survey above and below the confluence to get a sense of foodweb impact.
On a previous visit I saw a big fish turn & splash in the swallow water. It quickly moved into the shadows and I couldn't make out what it was. I have observed guys catching Redfin in the Wingecarribee River. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-glFiFY9eI2I.html

No comments really the mayor with no comments ,talk about where they hell is I C AC on this religious sect leaders play in Wollongong . Saturated with churches schooling all money making institutions that this man makes sure is catered for. His king are not good his kind are not liked .that is clear with no comments .it is the elephant in the room and I am prepared to say it.
Twit walks into a place that is a coal mining Ning steel producer and plays a religious hand.as sect leader for the saturated religious sect groups pushed n Wollongong. If it was not for coal and steel production this are would not even know exist. This is a person who plays philosphy over facts.
