+=====Walks Notes.=====
+by Len Newland. (Phone 432419 (13))
+====Walks for August.====
+Refer to Walks Programme for route details.
+===Test walks:===
+|August| |
+|6,7,8|Kanangra Walls - 36 km with Tony Denham. Splendid views with some big descents and ridge climbing.|
+|Sunday 8|Narrow Neck - 20 km with Joe Marton. Look over Katoomba and Jamison Valley from the very narrow ridge. Ropes may be needed - talk to leader first. Rough going in Cedar Creek.|
+|13,14,15|Megalong Crossing - 35 km with Alastair Battye. Walking alongside water almost all the way in the famous Cox's River area.|
+|Sunday 22|Mt. Hay Road.(Blue Mountains near Leura) - 15 km with Victor Lewin. Spectacular views of Grose Valley. Stoop descent to Blue Gum Forest and then climb out. Track all the way.|
+===Weekend walks:===
+|August| |
+|6,7,8|Cox's River Exploratory trip with Geoff Bridger. Could be rough - distance may not be very great. Try it.|
+|13,14,15|Myall Lakes with Tony Denham. Those beautiful lakes north from Newcastle are threatened by the sandminers.|
+|20,21,22|Kangaroo Valley area with John Fox (who now has a home telephone No. 416955). Exploratory trip from Fitzroy Falls to Coolana. Could be rough.|
+|28,29|Cox's River area - Saturday morning start. Hans Stichter is going overseas and will not be able to lead this walk. A volunteer leader needed. Carlon's Farm - Breakfast Creek - Cox's River - Galong Creek. 20 km. A good medium walk for prospectives with beautiful scenery and interesting climb (not difficult) up the waterfalls of Galong Creek - you normally don't get wet. Contact Walks Secretary if interested.|
+===Day walks:===
+|Sunday 1|Woodford - Glenbrook Creek with Len Newland. 14 km Easy. Train 8.10 Country - tickets to Woodford.|
+|Sunday 1|Waterfall to Engadine via Kangaroo Creek with Meryl Watman. 18 km Easy. No water at lunch stop, so no fires. Train 8.20 E. - tickets to Waterfall.|
+|Sunday 15|The Basin - West Head Road with Peter Miller. When he put this walk on the programme Peter didn't look up the tide table, but your feet at least are guaranteed to get wet.|
+|Sunday 15|Blaxland to Springwood with Jim Brown 15 km. A walk uphill up Glenbrook Creek is probably what makes this walk medium. Most people walk down Glenbrook Creek. Quite a lot of tracks near Springwood.|
+|Sunday 22|Minto - Georges River with David Ingram. Roads, tracks and a little scrub along parts of George's River south of Liverpool. 13 km.|
+|Sunday 29|Waterfall - Kangaroo Creek with Sheila Binns. Track walking in an area where the spring flowers should be on display.|
+|Sunday 29|__Bee Walk__ at Darkes Forest with David Cotton. Contact David at the club room about transport, rendezvous and time. David has beehives and a lot of knowledge about bees. Maybe honey for morning tea. This can be just a picnic, or a walk around Darkes Forest as well.|
+===Future walks:===
+Closing date for the Spring Programme is August 4th. So would you please decide to put a walk or two on and let me know the details A.S.A.P. Test Walks especially welcome (note only four in August).
