 Hunter Main Trail and Blackwater Creek. Day 1. Early start. Travel to Putty and then take a number of fire trails to Three Ways. Walk Hunter Main Trail and a small portion of Monundilla Fire Trail to GR 650 736. From here, descend into Blackwater Creek at GR 631 735 through a known pass at Bounty Gully. The objective now is to find a way up on the western side of Blackwater Creek. Most likely, we will fill up with water and have a high camp on our way up.
Day 2. Complete our exploration of the ascent from Blackwater Creek and retrace our steps back to the cars.
About 14-15km each day, 10km of it is on fire trails. Co-leader: Ian Thorpe
Hazards: Scrambling and exposure. Partly exploratory. Map: Putty, Kindarun, Monundilla, Coricudgy
From: 13-14 Aug 2016, Sat-Sun
