Wanna try a short hike with overnight camping? Wanna test your cold weather gear? Walk in the Naas Creek valley on easy fire trail to our destination, only 7km from the vehicles. Camp up behind the Shed in a delightful area of eucalypt saplings, along with Stephen’s party coming down off Sentry Box Mountain. Walk out the next day.

‘Brayshaw territory’ contains many historical sites that we can visit as very short side trips. There’s opportunity to see James Brayshaw’s hut site, Davy Brayshaw’s cairn, Boboyan Homestead, Crawford’s Old Station site, and Alexander Brayshaw’s 1879 hut site, the oldest European site in the area.

This is a great opportunity for first time overnight hikers and others seeking below zero nighttime temperatures. Need gear? Ask me or contact the CBC Equipment Officer on equipment@canberrabushwalkingclub.org to hire.

Around 14km and 200vm.
