(venue to be decided) TRIP REPORTS Mt Killabakh - 7 August Six of us met at Chrissy Gollan Park in Wingham to drive to the start of the Mt Killabakh walk. Stuart led this walk with us following a four wheel drive track before branching off onto a disused logging track. It was a bit of a climb up to the first outcrop. We stopped for a morning tea break and pulled out the thermos. There were great views from the rocky outcrop which looked up to the top of the mountain and back across the valley towards Lansdowne. From there to the top of the mountain is not well defined and care must be taken to find a path. We came out onto an open rock face which we followed for a short time before having to make our way through tall grass and bush to reach the rocks just below the summit. We made it to the trig cairn and took in the views of the district as this is the highest point in the Manning Valley the views are spectacular. We added our names to the visitors’ book and read through the comments made by previous hikers. We even found a comment by the Manning Valley Canoe Club who supposedly paddled their canoes to the bottom of the mountain before ascending!!!!! It must have been during a very big flood. We had lunch at the top and made our way back down contouring around the outcrop where we had morning tea. It was a bit of a bush bash but was very interesting and enjoyable, especially seeing how it eliminated a climb up and a steep descent. We all made it back safely and said our farewells and headed home after another climb up a favourite mountain. Stuart WEST KUNDERANG - December 2015 Another Mick O trip Well another year was coming to an end and it had become a sort of tradition now for Pam and myself to head away for a few days before Christmas to get away from crowds and the relentless bombardment of the festive season. This year we had booked into West Kunderang over four days and decided to take the camper trailer on its first four wheel drive 2 trip into the boondocks. West Kunderang is a privately owned campground on the upper Macleay River not far downstream from the junction of the Apsley River. To get there one takes the Pacific Highway as far as Kempsey then turn left and head up the river valley to George's Junction then up the Big Hill to the forests of the Styx River. Once on the plateau you take a left onto Raspberry Road (a popular r oute for canoe trips in the past) then eventually a right onto West Kunderang Trail. This trail is for vehicles with good ground clearance and low range and can take a good forty minutes to cover the 10 kilometres if you get traffic coming up the hill. We left home about midday on the 22 December thinking the total trip would take about 4 hours but alas, another Mick stuff up saw us getting there around dark totally miscalculating the time taken to travel along the gravel roads. The next day saw hot and fine conditions so once the campsite was established we toured up and down the river bed checking out the scenery. The campsites are well set up with a fire pit, table, dunny and wood provided. The layout of the property places groups of campers well away from each other and this adds to the ambience of feeling like you have the whole place to yourself. The following day was spent paddling up and down the river in a double Arcadia, admiring the old slab buildings and being entertained by the many horses grazing around the campsite. The river was low due to a severe dry spell but that made it easier for the Suzuki to cross and follow the Kunderang Trail to the south and view the valley from a ridge high above. A lot of people check in here to bass fish and they hold regular fishing competitions as well. Christmas Day was spent completely relaxed eating and partaking in the occasional 'sherbert' while watching the storm clouds develop. We had a visit from a large diamond python that made its way right through the middle of camp heading for the dunnies. Not wanting to have a fright during the night we decided to track the snake and found it down by the river's edge in a nice patch of rainforest. The owners later informed us that the python was pretty much a pet and lives there all the time. Later in the day the skies grew dark and dropped a deluge including some small hail putting out the campfire but not causing any damage. Boxing Day was pack up early to try to beat the traffic coming down the hill then a trip home via Armidale, Walcha and Gloucester. Pam & Mick Calendar 03/011/2016 If you have any ideas for trips or want to add events to the calendar please let me know and I will include them. The plan is to do some mid-week exploratory walks to use for future walks on weekends. These may be arranged at short notice and notified by email. NOTE: Buoyancy jackets are now compulsory to be worn at all time when paddling. Maritime regulation require them to be worn when more than 50 metres from shore.

INTRODUCTION TO AUSTRALIAN HIGH SPEED RAIL High speed rail (also commonly known as HSR) is highly regarded as one of the most significant innovation for mass passenger transportation to travellers willing to pay for shorter trip time and convenience. They are increasingly attracting public attention as a sustainable and ubiquitous alternative to medium range air transportation system (300km- 1000km distance or lhr-3hrs travel time range) around the world. However, the investment in HSR system is a complex decision that includes economic, social, environmental, technical and political trade-off considerations. Proposals for HSR in Australia (also known as Very Fast Train or VFT, Very High Speed Train or VHST, High Speed Train or HST) have been under active investigation since the early 1980s. Various studies and recommendations by prospective operators, government departments and advocacy groups have asserted that a HSR system between four Eastern Capitals (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Canberra) in Australia could compete air travel and will be able to put some cars off the interstate highways (Hume and Pacific Highways).
