Small mountain peak
Visits
- 2025-12-07: Another stop on the road to stretch the legs. The road to the top of the mountain was closed, so we just walked around in the lower elevation.
- 2025-12-09: Another stop to stretch the legs. We were hoping to find Glossy Black Cockatoo, but no luck. On the way out of the area, Barbara discovered a tick biting her. We went to the nearest town where we bought some overpriced spray to kill the tick. The dead tick was hanging from her skin for the next three days.
