 The following week-end Bob Younger's 15 pilgrims over Mt. Solitary finished in a wind blown snow storm, and refuged in Wentworth Falls Railway Station to recover. It was rather milder for David Cotton's day walk amongst the bees and wild flowers at Darke's Forest: on the same day eleven people on David Ingram's day walk over Scouter's Mt. found it "nice and scratchy", again with good wild flowers. The following week-end Bob Younger's 15 pilgrims over Mt.

-Mike Short took over Barry Wa11ace's Nattai River trip and reported numerous snakes. The area around Starlight's track is recovering well from last year bushfires.

 Wilf Hilder, on Federation matters, said a Committee had been set up to consider Reunion sites. Suggestions were invited, and information of suitable sites would he made known to member Clubs. The price of military maps had risen to 75c a copy. Owing to a burning coal seam nearby, the pass on Black Billy's Head in the Narrow Neck Megalong area, was rather obscure at present. Wilf Hilder, on Federation matters, said a Committee had been set up to consider Reunion sites.

-\ +And so we must leave it at that. I feel, as no doubt many other people do, that although Taros's bodily presence is not with us, the spirit of the man will always remain and that he will always be trudging along with us with his Taro-made pack on his back, so constructed you will remember to have easy access to his watch, paper and pencil and for quick use, if necessary of his snake bite outfit. Let us ever be reminded that one of Taro's calibre cannot really depart from us and I conclude by repeating part of my tribute to him in the SBW Magazine : "It is not a case of Farewell Taro but walk on Taro and may the track become ever easier".
