This is a shorter, off-track walk that will hopefully find some patches of winter sun. We start by bashing our way up to the Tidbinbilla ridge from Woods Reserve to a north-facing hill immediately to the south of St antons Gap. We then loop back northwards to reach Stantons Gap itself an d then clamber our way directly up Pyramid Hill on a steep, boulder-stre wn slope that will be in the shade and could be wet and icy. After views from the top of Pyramid Hill, we will journey down a small track to Dev ils Gap and then through relatively open scrubland, and a fire trail, to wards Gibraltar Rocks to reach a large rock platform overlooking Tidbinb illa valley in the afternoon sun. Our return to Woods Reserve will trave rse a disused firetrail down towards Corin Road. Some of the off-track p art of this walk will be slow going, and gloves and gaiters are recommen ded. The scrub will be thick and scratchy in some parts and walkers need a good sense of balance and stamina for steep ascents. Length 9 km. Tot al climb 612m. BBC grading of 10. CBC grading of M/R. WEATHER: According to BOM on Sunday, the temperature in Canberra on the day of this walk w ill range from -3 to 13 degrees, with frost and the chance of fog in the morning and a mostly sunny afternoon.
