Mount Baga (Central Queensland) |
24 Sep, 2001 |
Hard |
1.8km return 90 mins |
|
| The first mountain I ever climbed in Australian on a visit in 2001. The only details I can remember was that it was difficult then to keep on a track. The only clue I had was that the start was at the back of the old mine area. I got about half way up and the track just disappeared and as I was on my own and nobody else around, I came back down for safety reasons. No digital photos back then so have had to scan mine in and the quality is not that great. |

| I recently looked back through photos from an East Coast trip back in 2001 and came across five walks I had never recorded. I have to admit that I can’t remember anything about it but photos never lie. | ||||

| Another photo found in my album taken in 2001 shows that I did this walk, but can’t remember the details, as I completed three ‘falls’ walks that day. | ||||

Millaa Millaa Falls (Far North Queensland) |

Easy |
400m return 30 mins |

| With adventurous bushwalking off the cards at the moment (Jan 2020), due to severe weather conditions, I had a look back through my record to see if there were a few I had never posted and this was one from 2001. This is a most wonderful place, whilst Josephine Falls gets all the cred, this place beats it in every way; from its surrounding lush rainforest garden, waterhole for cooling off and a beautiful waterfall, which you can get under and behind, what more could you want. |

Kulki Boardwalk (Daintree National Park) |

Easy |
600m return 15 mins |

| My first full day in Australia and I come across this wonderful place where the rainforest meets the ocean and I wonder why, with all this beach, is nobody in the water? Naively, at that time, I had no appreciation of what lurks in the water around here, till I saw the sign 'crocodiles abound here'! | ||||
