Mt Taylor - evening walk
Tue 07th Mar 2023
Part-day walk
Leader Jeff B. An evening walk on Mt Taylor, ascending via the waterfall, western cliffs and herbfields to the trig point (for RU⬆️4it participants). Descend on one of the tracks and follow a fire trail back to the cars, under the full moon if twilight runs out. Bring a torch just in case. No need to book (please: DON'T BOOK - just turn up), but all participants MUST sign the acknowledgement of risks and obligations form at the start of the walk. (See the CBC website under “for leaders”/“forms …” if you want to see the text.)
If the weather looks doubtful, text “walk on?” to 0418662870 after 5.30pm and I will reply Y or N.

Terrain information
The ascent is on footpads or off track, steep and rocky in places, but medium grade rather than rough. From the summit onwards the walk is on track and the grade is easy.
Transport information
No need to book; just drive yourself to the car park outside the locked gate off Colquhoun St Kambah. From Sulwood Dr take the eastern (further from Drakeford Dr) of the two entrances to Colquhoun St. (On 1 March the Colquhoun St sign on Sulwood Dr at this entrance was still missing.) Immediately before you reach the first house in Colquhoun St on the left, turn right onto a rough dirt track to the gate. Aim to arrive 6.20pm.
A walk or similar activity with a duration of a day or part day. No overnight gear required.
