A small change of plans. I will be on top of Red Hill tonight at 5.30PM 29th, tomorrow 30th at 5.00PM, and will be at Lotus Bay at 5.00PM on Wed 31. Join us for the paddle or for Smartphone Nav at the Club BBQ on Black Mtn peninsula.

Three Smartphone Navigation Tutorials, on Red Hill, in Daylight Saving Time, each lasting about 1.5h. We will gather at the now closed On Red restaurant at about 5.30PM. Bring your smartphone, your bushwalking nav app, and any other nav gadgets you would like to cross compare. We will start our smartphone apps, create a new database for our trip, select an electronic map, enter two waypoints, download map tilestop of red hill tonight Mon 29, start our GPS and get a Fix, start tracking, put our phones in airplane mode, pin our nav app screen, then toddle towards Davidson Trig.
