Spring has sprung, the grass is riz, I know where the birdies is: Tidbinbilla! Join me for an early spring trek to mountain folds beneath the range and see the colour comin g to the landscape. We start at the Rock Valley Homestead carpark, head over the Tidbinbilla River and begin a steady climb NW towards the folds and spurs below the range. The early section is on trail before heading off on a foot pad with a morning tea stop on the way (large MT because lunch will likely not be until 1pm). Next we tackle a 900m long trail cl imb with a few breaks on the way. This gets us to the target of the walk , a traverse of the mid upper reaches below John's Peak and Camels Hump. Finishing the traverse we start off track and make our way to the weste rn fence of the Jedbinbilla Safe Haven protecting the Southern Brush-tai led Rock Wallaby. We descend to the river along the Jedbinbilla boundary in the faint hope we'll spy an SBRW! We lunch after an unusual Tidbinbi lla river crossing before winding our way back to the Homestead. Gaiters /Half gaiters – maybe snake protection / keep gravel out of boots. Dis tance 13.5 km. Total Ascent: 350m. Grade 8 - low medium. Weather as at S aturday: Partly cloudy, 15, 20WNW winds.
