Not public land sorry, so add some demerit points :)
Looks like good growth in the paddocks
Add some points,its nice country and green.
Add more still cause you still have scars healing. Add a few more cause Bella thinks it's a good idea.
Shot a deer off the elephants head looking point to the right below me and walked to the middle high point on the tree edge to find it. Ended up grovelling in the creek behind the knob and came out in the gully to the right. Took it quietly. Walking pole is good. The risk is damaging my split sternum so need to take it quietly for a wee while yet. Am using a large bum bag with shoulder straps that loads the weight onto my hips and doesn't pull back on my shoulders. Works good with a couple of back straps aboard and could have probably carried a shoulder too.Quote:

Yes walking poles are gold for descending slowly... The longer the better.
Nice looking country plenty of grass for them.Quote:

Looks like a good spot! Take it easy I’m sure a split sternum is not something you want to happen again in a hurry!!
