It is always nice to have overcast cool weather when you plan to do a hard walk with bush bashing and steep terrain. Ten walkers set out to explore the geologic outcrops seen on SIXMaps imagery (see above photo) in the Comerang Mtn area.

The walk starts on B Travers Road, an old logging road that has been recently graded and is not far from Bodalla. We then headed down an old abandoned logging road that falls under the category of ‘bush pushing’ as vegetation is slowly taking over after the 2019/20 fires. Finally we had a 400m section of steep downhill bush bashing to reach the creek and rock outcrops.

Much to the walk leader’s relief, everyone was impressed with the outcrops of volcanic rocks which, being very resistant to erosion, have created a series of waterfalls, cascades and pools. We all concluded that we needed to revisit this site once we had some good rain and the creek is flowing.

All good things must come to an end and the steep uphill slog had to be endured until we reached the graded road and a pleasant walk back to the cars.
