Canberra Bushwalking Club ACT Top Ten Peaks

ACT Top Ten Peaks
A party of four intrepid CBC walkers, led by Stephen M, have just returned from six days of bushwalking in the remote areas of Namadgi NP. Much of the walk was along the trackless, rugged ranges that make up the ACT/NSW border.
The objective was to visit the 10 highest named peaks in the ACT. Unfortunately, the untimely snow, ice and strong winds conspired to abandon an attempt on two of the peaks (Mts Namadgi and Burbidge). Still, they had an awesome time walking in the spectacular and wild country right on our doorstep.
We are very fortunate for the hard work of those who were instrumental in securing this wilderness area as a National Park.
Happy 40th Birthday Namadgi NP!
