Took the BT into W.Kunderang last weekend .

What a beautiful place and Cindy is a font of knowledge on the area . We did a walk up into the dry rainforest - peaceful , cool , beautiful . On the walk , we found a dead moth which measured 12.5 cm long . Canoeing would be good there , although there appears to be few decent rapids in that section . From the various campsites , there is 4WD is access to 10 klm of Macleay River for fishing , but this requires a number of river crossings .

To get there , you turn south off the Kempsey / Armidale Rd on the Rasp berry Firetrail ( about 52 klm of dirt ). Prior bookings have to be made with Cindy on 02 67781264 . Drop toilets , good shade , some drinking water , fire wood , no yobbos , grassy camping spots and no power.

They say that an 18 foot offroad van can negotiate the track down into the gorge and I had no trouble with Elvis my 16 footer , on the wet track .

Unfortunately the area had had a fair bit of rain and the Macleay River was running a banker so the bass fishing was cancelled . Drank a bit too much red and cracked a 1958 Orlando Tawny which was pretty awesome .

Saw the Innkeepers van parked in Armidale and actually stopped behind it - tossing up whether to drop in . Thought they might be a bit busy , so kept going .

My wife and I received very sexy member cards today , but we are at a loss to know what we can do with them . Can anybody tell me of what use I can put mine to .The only thing I can think of , is to attach mine to my shirt for identification at BT "getogethers".

Cheers ,

Willie
