Belougery Split Rock (Warrumbungle National Park)	24 May, 2023	Hard	4.6km return 3.5 hrs
On a three day stop over, we were lucky as this was the only day we could climb Split Rock due to ‘hazard reduction’. The scramble to the summit was well worth the effort with the wonderful views it provided. Personally, I would do the circuit clockwise, as the climb up is less steep and provides a better perspective of the rock formations.
Whitegum Lookout (Warrumbungle National Park)	23 May, 2023	Very Easy	1.25km return 30 mins
Basket Swamp Falls (Basket Swamp National Park)	22 May, 2023	Medium	1.1km return 75 mins
Lahs, how the hell did you find this place? Turned out to be one of the best waterfall adventures we have ever done once you get your head around rock hopping and climbing back under the falls.
Timbarra Lookout (Basket Swamp National Park)	22 May, 2023	Hard	300m return 1 hr
I would like to say that we climbed to the top and the trig, but alas we could not fit ourselves through the crevasse and were unsure what was beyond. Still, walked around the base to the far side and enjoyed what views we could.
Thunderbolts Hideout (New South Wales)	22 May, 2023	Easy	900m return 45 mins
I have driven past this numerous times but never stopped to investigate. Having visited Thunderbolt’s Cave last year this makes an interesting twin.
Little Bald Rock (Bald Rock National Park)	21 May, 2023	Medium	7.8km return 2 hrs
When I first climbed Little Bald Rock in 2017, I could not find the access points to the eastern face. This time around we worked it out from the top and marked the base point with a cairn.
Bungoona Walk (Bald Rock National Park)	21 May, 2023	Medium	5.4km return 90 mins
We have always climbed to the summit of Bald Rock via the main track and rock face, so to take the Bungoona Walk was an enjoyable alternative. Despite the campsite being full, we were the only ones to brave the cold and see the sunset from the summit.
Bald Rock Summit (Bald Rock National Park)	21 May, 2023	Medium	2.9km return 90 mins
Mill Point Cemetery (Great Sandy National Park)	3 Apr, 2023	Easy	3.2km return 1 hr
Kinaba Track (Great Sandy National Park)	2 Apr, 2023	Easy	12.6km return 4 hrs
This was a long slog on a hot day, with very little of interest along the way. The reward was the Information Centre on the side of Lake Cootharaba and a welcome breeze on the top deck to eat my lunch.
Mill Point (Great Sandy National Park)	2 Apr, 2023	Easy	5.3km return 90 mins
Boulder Mountain (Woondum National Park)	22 Jan, 2023	Hard	3.2km return 2.5 hrs
We started on cool early morning yet were dripping sweat by the time we got to the top. Can’t say there was any ‘reward’ at the top as the tree line obscures your view but was certainly a challenge and a great training exercise.
Mary Cairncross Reserve (Sunshine Coast)	21 Jan, 2023	Very Easy	2km return 1 hr
Lagoon Walk (Sunshine Coast)	2 Jan, 2023	Easy	1.6km return 1 hr
Wild Horse Mountain (Glass House Mountains National Park)	10 Dec, 2022	Medium	1.4km return 30 mins
Mt Ngungun (Glass House Mountains National Park)	10 Dec, 2022	Medium	2.8km return 90 mins
Wild Horse Mountain (Glass House Mountains National Park)	10 Dec, 2022	Medium	1.4km return 30 mins
Mount Coolum (Sunshine Coast)	12 Nov, 2022	Medium	2.6km return 90 mins
Carlo Sandblow (Great Sandy National Park)	2 Sep, 2022	Easy	3.2km return 90 mins
Amama Walk (Amamoor State Forest)	7 Aug, 2022	Medium	2.2km return 1 hr
Early Sunday morning walk and there were plenty of people to talk to on the way around. Some of us rock hopped and scrambled up the creek which was great fun before the huff and puff of reaching the top of the ridge and then a welcome decent.
