Mount Wilson Search 16 December 2024 Today we were looking for a bushwalker who has been missing for a couple of days in Mount Wilson. Our first tasking was a side creek of Waterfall Creek and was easy.Our second tasking was below Wynnes Rock Lookout: this was a scrubby mess but it was interesting.The third tasking took us to a rocky outcrop. Surprisingly there was a track below the cliff line although there was nothing outstanding to look at.We were […]

The second one was a fire trail in a former life: this was confirmed by […]

In any case it was the right place to be on a hot sunny day!
