Next activity: Warratah Gully South East NP Camp, 7-9 March - fully subscribed but still possible to come for individual days - see program
1st March
Close to high tide the group initially explored a little way upstream before turning back and heading towards Murrah Lagoon and the river mouth. The pleasure of being out on the water was further increased by the spectacle of a wedge tailed eagle and sea eagles soaring overhead. The conditons had been splendid for paddling but, after entering the lagoon, a fairly strong headwind meant that the excerise value of the paddle was increased considerably. On reaching the beach a long leisurely break, with lunch and the opportunity to futher explore the area, was enjoyed. A visit from an unsuspecting exploring echinda was a delight for everyone. Back in the kayaks, and now wind assisted, the made their way back upstream taking the time to investigate a side stream before returning to the starting point.
Thanks to Dick for leading the day.
