 ====== Hangliding In Tandem ======

 The preceding apprehension is replaced by a sort of numbness as I am strapped into my jacket. Is this really happening to me? As the pilot checks over the glider and my gear, he moves as in a kind of shadow as my Mind has sought refuge in some nether-world. I hear him say "whatever you do, do not touch this bar" and my silent response is that. would rather die than touch that bar - which I suppose is what he Was implying would happen to both of us if I did grab a hold of it in panic.

 Anzac Weekend saw the return of weekend walks to the program.- Jim Rivers led a Party Of 7, on his Morton NP walk. The diligent among you will have read the account that appeared in the previous Magazine. For those who didn't, or the Condensed book lovers out there, the walk was severely rerouted due to certain car problems of an inverse nature. The weather was good however. Tony Holgate had 9 on his walk in the Deua NP. They enjoyed it all so much they stayed out Sunday evening as well. John Hogan sort of combined his Kanangra walk with Paul McCann's Oxley Wild Rivers NP trip. There were 5 on the trip and John provided an extensive report.

 found to be in flood. At about there they called it a day, and returned to Katoomba.. Dennis Morgan and Shiela Speter cancelled their hot air balloon trip due to weather conditions and Peter Miller had already postponed his BeroWra walk to go on the hot air balloon trip. Maureen Carter led a party of 7 on her Romp in the Royal on the Saturday. It turned out to be a long, wet day with leeches aplenty. Don Brooks had 12 on his Sunday walk out from Woodford in similar conditions. They rerouted the trip to avoid Wilsons Glen and lunched early in a cave to avoid the unpleasantness of lumbar trickles while masticating. Margaret Read cancelled her Brisbane Waters NP trip the same day.

It's all getting down to the fate of the high conservation value forest areas, left in the "too hard" basket until last. The NSW government is assessing a further eight wilderness areas. The meeting unanimously agreed to write to the government supporting their actions on wilderness areas. There was a report from the body of the meeting of a horseriding _party setting out into the park from Kanangra Walls on Easter Friday morning.

 Confederation report indicated that stories of vandalism at Bluegum have been exaggerated. It appears the damage was confined to the area near the Acacia Flat camping area. Confederation are to establish a home page on the internet. There have been further protests about the number of cattle being encountered on the Kowrnung River.
