The Wollemi National Park will cover 502,000 hectares (502 sq km, in more familiar terms) and will be the second-largest park in N.S.W. after the Kosciusko National Park. The new park will be almost entirely a wilderness park, and Sydney is very fortunate in having this area so close - 80 km from the city centre. Bushwalkers like ourselves, who have always walked in the area, will no doubt use the park much more as future petrol costs and reductions force us to stay closer to home. | The Wollemi National Park will cover 502,000 hectares (502 sq km, in more familiar terms) and will be the second-largest park in N.S.W. after the Kosciusko National Park.

- | On April 27th, the Federal Government handed over its harbour foreshore defence lands to be added to, and complete, the Sydney Harbour National Park. A total of 376 hectares was added to the park, the largest area being North Head. Other areas include South Head, Middle Head and Dobroyd Head. Sadly, this is not entirely a vict,ry, for in exchange a large area of Jervis Bay, The Beecroft Peninsular, formally leased to the Federal Government, is now to be federally owned. | + | On April 27th, the Federal Government handed over its harbour foreshore defence lands to be added to, and complete, the Sydney Harbour National Park.

Other parks established this year, in February, were the two adjacent parks of Deua and Wadbilliga. There are some undesirable aspects in the parks - for example, the creation of two parks instead of the one originally conceived. (This is to allow for a proposed east-west road. However, an excessively large gap has been left.) None the less, the establishment of these parks is good news indeed. | Other parks established this year, in February, were the two adjacent parks of Deua and Wadbilliga.

On 22nd February, the Prime Minister announced that he had ordered a review of the Heritage Commission Act, because some elements of the Act came into conflict with other Acts. Although the review is known to have commenced within the Home Affairs Department, the Prime Minister has not responded to questions about the membership of the Committee and its operations. There is no guarantee that there will be any provision for consultation with the public.

A dog-sledge ambulance formed the welcoming party as we skied into Kikutstua. These big, beautiful animals were lounging outside the lodge and inside there was hot coffee and cake! I was reluctant to leave the soothing warmth of this cafe, but a glance at our watches showed that time was passing too quickly. It was 2 pm and we had until about 4 pm to reach the lit up tracks. | A dog-sledge ambulance formed the welcoming party as we skied into Kikutstua.

- | It was nearly dark when we reached. Tryvannstua and the lights were slowly brightening the tracks. The first contingent of afterwork skiers had arrived, discarding their work gear for ski clothes. These people presented a different picture from those we had seen during the day. | ||
- | These were wearing a look of desperate keenness intent on doing the circuit in the fastest time possible. | ||
- | | ||
- | Reaching our last hill, we could see the train waiting at the bottom. There was one last schuss and, stopping one metre from the train, we hastily strapped our skis to its side and climbed into the warmth. The train descended to Oslo where it deposited us in the city centre. There was a cold, brisk walk to the busstop and then back to Brockmans Gate. | ||
- | In this street lived Mrs. StrSmmen, a delightful old lady with whom | ||
- | we were staying. We had found her through the Accommodation Bureau at the railway station and she charged a pittance compared to hotels. With her we had great fun. She told us stories of Norway during the war, and taught me how to make Rommegrot, a Norwegian dessert. | ||

- | poor! The surprising thing was that we were thoroughly enjoying ourselves, having just had a sumptious meal of meat, dumplings and vegetables. This was our only real Norwegian meal as restaurants were very expensive. | ||
- | Except for the finale of the wonderful meal, each skiing day in Oslo was similar to this one, except that always we went to a different area. However, several weeks later, we repeated this trip from Stryken to Oslo. The temperature had dropped, the snow conditions werb ideal and, the trip took half the time. Such are the advantages of skiing at 18. | ||
