A suggestion was made that endorsement of their activities be contained in a resolution of the meeting, but the President felt there was no need for this at present. And with that, the time being 9.25 p m., the August meeting came to a close. | ||

+ | HAPPENINGS ON MOUNT GOWER. | ||
+ | MIMI111 | ||
+ | by Paddy Pallin. | ||
+ | We realised almost from the start that Ken was a bit of a leg puller. May and I plus Robert and his wife Nancy arrived at Ocean View Guest House on Lord Howe Island and there was this character wearing a bright yellow skivvie emblazoned with a spear toting skindiver under which was inscribed "Bass Strait Bushwalker Club". When curiosity got the better of me, he mundbled something about the oil rig in Bass Strait. I thought perhaps he was a roughneck on holiday, but he didn't look like it. | ||
+ | Next day-he wore a white skivvie bearing a large pair of red lips and | ||
+ | the sign "Manly Amatory Sports Club". Later in the week he wore a pale blue creation bearing the name " | ||
+ | We enjoyed these little jokes but we found difficulty in swallowing | ||
+ | the next one. Nancy, Rob and I were waiting for the last of Cyclone Zoe to subside to have a go at climbing Mount Gower, which as you know rises nearly 3,000 feet out of the sea at the south end of the island. Just three days before we were due to go home, things settled down a bit and we decided to make an early start the next day. " | ||
+ | for the mutton birds, and when you get near the top, shout and they' | ||
+ | come round it dozens and land right near you." "Oh, year' said we, | ||
+ | Page 4 THE SYDNEY BUSHWALKE' | ||
+ | "What should we shout?" | ||
+ | Next morning at sparrowlight Nancy, Robert and I together with our guide Bernie cycled to the other end of the island, left our bikes near Salmon Beach and started the cliMb. I've climbed quite a few mountains | ||
+ | in my time and in almost every case for every five hundred feet up there' | ||
+ | About threequarters of the way up we 8topped for a breather at a raace where the slope seemed to be about 70 when we noticed mutton birds Wheeling around in the misty sky. "What about shouting ' | ||
+ | Several landed like soft bombs in bushes nearby and started frantic- | ||
+ | ally to climb the mountainside to roach us. We watched amazed. They | ||
+ | used everything they had, wings, beak and claws as they scrabbled amongst the dense scrub with all the urgency of footballers trying to intercept a winger on the run. | ||
+ | What the explanation is of this extraordinary behaviour we have no idea; loud noises generally have the opposite effect on birds. They clawed their way through the undergrowth, | ||
+ | to a small fairly clear area near us, and soon we had six or seven birds | ||
+ | gathered together. We half axpected them to elect a spokesman to approach us and ask why-we had called them out of the sky, but no they immediately commenced an unseemly brawl and so intent were they on fighting that they | ||
+ | allowed us to reach down and pick them up. They submitted quite quietly to handling and we launched some into the air. We realised we were doing - these birds a good turn because the others had great difficulty in getting | ||
+ | themselves airborne. What they did was to use both feet, two wings and as a fifth 1iMb, their strong beaks, to climb to the top of a small tree or dense bush and so launch themselves and fly away. | ||
+ | . The top of the mountain was in cloud, the dense rain forest type vegetation dripped moisture and the floor was covered with beautiful mosses and ferns. Thia area was recently visited by an expedition from the Australian Museum to make a survey of the woodhens, a flightless species unique to Lord Howe Island.. At one time they were plentiful but have been nearly exterminated by rats and other causes. The scientists found | ||
+ | and banded. only 23 on Gower and they went to the trouble of climbing the adjacent Mount Lidgbird where they found only one (poor lonely thing). | ||
+ | Page 5 THE SYDNEY BUSHWALEZR September, 1974. | ||
+ | We stood quietly in thes,ilent forest-and suddenly a woo dhen appeared and then another; They we like ' | ||
+ | Having seen one twelfth of the world' | ||
+ | We made a slithery descent of the mountain and reported back to Ken who immediately demanded the,t each of us shout him a_beer as a penalty for not believing his story. I've got a sneaking feeling he was just as amazed as we were. | ||
+ | If you don't believe this story I've got slides o Trove it. | ||

+ | EISHESEUWELT. by Allan W3iborn. | ||
+ | The guide book referred to the ice caves near Werfen as one of the outstanding attractions in Austria. We had seen some small ice caves at Craters of the Moon National Park in Oregon, U.S.A., but Eisriesenwelt (literally "the world of the ice giants" | ||
+ | Discovered in 18799 they are situated about 28 miles south of Salzburg in the Tennergebirge Range. The entrance is at 5,500 feet above sea level, and 3,300 feet above the valley of the Salach River, in the precipitous rock wall of the Hochkogel Peak. | ||
+ | All this added ui to a protracted approach and return, particularly during the height of the tourist season in early August. The obvious time to leave Werfen would be about 8 a m. to beat the crowds, but we arrived at 2 p m. on a hot day. The road signs were good fordirection, | ||

+ | up 500 feet of height to the entrance of the ice cave. | ||
+ | We were now high up on the cliff wall, looking out toward_ Hochkonig at 9,600 feet. Each guide had a group of forty people, and as one party | ||
+ | came out of the cave, another went in - each fifteen minutes. This was really hustling, as there were about 300 people inside the cave at one time, but it is so large thee did not appear to be any crowding. Every sixth person was issued with a carbide lamp, as there is no fixed lighting | ||

+ | GUOUOGANG REVISITED. | ||
+ | by Tom Wilhelm. | ||
+ | Hy first visit to Guouogang took place (August '71) some six | ||
+ | months after my arrival in Australia. The bush, at that time, was still somewhat foreign feeling to my North American senses. The fact that we began walking at night lent a further touch of strangeness to the walk. | ||
+ | The Friday night start is customary when beginning from Canon' | ||
+ | Farm down to the Cox's River by torchlight. My tiny torch failed | ||
+ | immediately, | ||
+ | the aower end of Breakfast Creek is, when I viewed it on the return trip | ||
+ | on Sunday afternoon, and I couldn' | ||
+ | an ankle though several people received good through dunkings in the creek!) I was only too happy to lay down and sleep when we finally reached the Cox. | ||
+ | Up early, too early as far as T. was concerned, but fires and breakfast and we were off down river. The morning was rather nice, our few crossings were cool but not freezing, and soon we were at the foot of the | ||
+ | Gasper buttress. Here we met Terry Norris and Bob Younger, who'd come down the day before. Last night we'd picked up Jim Calloway and several girls, suddenly we were more than a dozen strong unfortunately as things | ||
+ | would turn out not individually so. | ||
+ | The damp, cool river bottom was soon left behind as we began the climb up the buttress. The long steep ridge up to Mt. Jenolan (1140 m) is very nice, in so far as the view that opens up behind you is concerned l | ||
+ | Change down to shorts, the day looked quite promising as we enjoyed the | ||
+ | view out northeastwards towards Narrow Neck, and the sight of the Cox | ||
+ | now fax below. | ||
+ | From the vantage point of Mt. Jen you can see Mt. Guouogang off | ||
+ | in the distance, quite off and quite distant, that interminable ridge | ||
+ | over Queahgong is rough under foot and seems to undulate for ever. At this point, with that ridge stretching off before us, one person turned | ||
+ | back and another one should have but didn' | ||
+ | in fits and starts to walk the ridge. A few of us would go ahead, then | ||
+ | wait for the middle and end to catch up, OUT progress became slower and slower. | ||
+ | The fine day threatened to disintegrate around us, clouds blew in, the wind picked up, even hail fell.. Some of us threw on rain gear at this point, but fast as it had come, it was gone. Grey clouds remained, but no rain or hail, off came 'the rain gear. | ||
+ | I had time, while waiting for the slow ones to catch up, to examine the vegetation along that ridge. The grotesque grass trees had struck me before as primitive looking, and t're ones that grow along this ridge are particularly big, odd, and ola. My legs were now back in long pants | ||
+ | P ge 10 TEE SYDNEY BUSHWALKER September, 1974. | ||
+ | thanks to the native holly with its needle sharp leaves, and I couldn' | ||
+ | help but think how scratchy and broken the top of this ridge was, no | ||
+ | attractive campsites at all, and of course no water anywhere. Certain ridges, of about the same elevation, in the coastal riountains of California, were grassy and soft and had one beautiful campsite after another. Some of these ridges even had fine springs right near their tops making camping ideal. In way of compensation the view north-westward from the Gasper Buttress is quite beautiful, the ridge just drops away, and green bushclad mountains sprawl away in the distance. | ||
+ | I finally pushed my way up the ridge, through the dwarf like gum trees that clothe the top of Mt. Guouogang, and waited in the cool air next to the big cairn that marks the top. The day was now grey and cool and I was surprised to discover that you could see the tall buildings of Sydney on the horizon far to the east, they must be over 100 kilometres distant. The afternoon was rapidly passing and by the time everyone straggled to the top it was time to go. | ||
+ | After a little hesitation finding the Nooroo Buttress we were finally on course and descending. Progress was really slow, and I pushed on quite a distance ahead at one point. It as almost dusk, and I was alone when | ||
+ | I stumbled upon an Echidna, the first one I'd ever seen. I must have been the first person that it had ever seen judging by the rate at which it burrowed into the ground to escape! Being so distracted for a few minutes I had_ momentarily forgotten about the group - I suddenly realised that I hadn't heard them for some time. I gave a Cooee, and much to my amazement it was returned from some distance below! | ||
+ | I couldn' | ||
+ | For all practical purposes so ended my first visit to Mt. Guouogang. It was a dry (we had hardly any water between us) rocky camp, but the view | ||
+ | . | ||
+ | of the stars at night was beautiful. I slept by the fire all night. The quick descent to the creek in the morning and the day's walk back to Carlon' | ||
+ | Don't really know why I made a second visit to Nt. Guouogang, but I did this year. Only six of us started off on Friday night from Carlon' | ||
+ | Page 11 THE SYDNEY BUSHWALICER September, 1974. | ||
+ | 40 | ||
+ | full moon, and a torch was almost unnecessary! It wc,..s beautiful | ||
+ | walking down in the moonlight. We rose early, after a cold night, and went on down the river. This year the water was high and the temperature | ||
+ | freezing! We met Terry Norris at the base of the ridge, he'd come down earlier on Friday this swelled our party to seven. | ||
+ | The weather this year has been so different from '719 very wet as compared to very dry, yet our trip across Mt. Guouogang was, weather wise, almost a repeat performance. The first steep bit, up to Mt. Jenolan, was sunny and nice, but beyond the weather just changed. It got really cold, grey clouds blew over, rain fell all around us, yet no more than a | ||
+ | few moments drizzle actually fell on us! Our little party moved over that interminable ridge quite quickly this year. Aside from the drama of light and shadow, the haze and sheets of rain falling in the distance, the only odd thing I noticed was an extraordinary number of lyre bird. bowers as we proceeded along the ridge. The wind really howled over us at times and it was quite cold. | ||
+ | It seemed almost freezing at the cairn on top. I recall shaking and | ||
+ | shivering as we signed the book, and watching Vic raise his camera at arms length (so as to have it above the little dwarf gums) above his head and | ||
+ | take a picture of the view! In spite of all the cloud around we could | ||
+ | clearly see downtown Sydney on the horizon. It was so cool and windy on the way up we hadn't officially stopped for lunch, though we had plenty | ||
+ | of snacks in its place. The top was even colder and more windy, so we descended down Guouogang Ridge to find a sheltered plage for lunch. Lunch | ||
+ | we did, in a sheltered spot with a sweeping view of the Gangerang range. | ||
+ | We still had a long way to go so we didn't linger. | ||
+ | Eleven hundred metres down and some seven kilometres long, but that | ||
+ | ridge, judging by my knees, seemed even longer. However, Terry read the | ||
+ | facts off the map, so they must be right. Just at dusk our weary legs | ||
+ | stumbled out into Konangaroo Clearing. The wind which had. blown all day died away and we had a lovely camp.' -Even the rain that had threatened us all day long held off till early morning and when it did fall it did so | ||
+ | gently. | ||
