Road access is now available to within a couple of hundred yards of the Red Hand Cave at Glenbrook. It is hoped that the Public Recreation Reserve along the Nepean River from Erskine Creek to Glenbook will be added to the Park. The Blue Gum Forest, the Edward Hallstrom Reserve at Blackheath, Glenbrook Creek and the Nepean lookout at Erskine Creek are to be added to the Park. The Victoria Falls track has been repaired at the top, but is closed below the Falls at present, pending repairs. It is proposed to stock Bedford Creek with fish, probably Perch. | Road access is now available to within a couple of hundred yards of the Red Hand Cave at Glenbrook.

A grant of £250 from the State Government has been received by the Trust. Metal signs are to be erected at various points. The Electricity Commission is placing notices on gates across its access roads to the effect that vehicles may not proceed but walkers are permitted. An extension of about 50% of the acreage of the area is anticipated. The erection of fireplaces and clearing of walking tracks is in progress. | A grant of £250 from the State Government has been received by the Trust. Metal signs are to be erected at various points.

- | FOR la0-, YOUR TRANSPORT FROM BLACIii-FEATH | + | |
- | CONTACT | + | Form a food party if you can, 4 or 5 is a good number, more than that can be a bit unwieldy. You can save weight, have a bigger variety of food and can get away with on1y 1 billy per person. Plan menus for each meal each day and from that you can work out your quantities. I allow 1/2 oz per person of rolled oats, and 1 oz per person of dried vegetables, rice, macaroni and dried fruit etc. Naturally I am assuming that these commodities will be eaten accompanied by other foods, i.e. vegetables with meat, rice with curry or dried fruit etc. |
- | .HATSWELLYS TAXI AND TOURISt SERVICE. | + | |
- | RING, WRITE, WIRE OR CALL - ANY HOUR - DAY OR NIGHT. | + | On top of the food list write route of trip, number of days planned to do it and the number of people in the food party. When the trip's over, the conscientious food party organiser can make notes of how much extra sugar etc. is needed next time and how many tins of sardines etc. were tossed away at the bottom of the hill on the last day. Keep your old food lists to refer to on future occasions, it will save a lot of time and thought. |

- | 'FARES: IcaufGRL.WALLS 30/- per head (minimum 5 passeilzers) | + | Be sure that all your food is packed in water-proof containers but remember that plastic bags puncture easily, so if you put sugar in a plastic bag put the lot inside a cloth bag. Although it may be a bit more trouble, it's no extra weight and it's safer. Also food such-as sugar, flour, porridge etc. carried in bags are easier to pack into small corners than rigid containers. If you carry honey, take extra precautions. I carried honey once in an aluminium container with a good screw on lid and was unfortunate enough to have the container squeezed when negotiating a chimney and the good screw on lid popped off with disastrous results. |
