I had missed out on this trip 12 months ago and was determined to go this time, even if I had to drive all the way there myself.  I actually left the Central Coast at the crack of dawn on Friday morning and met up with Julie to do a run through North Bowen Canyon (what were we thinking!).

Julie on the first abseilNORTH BOWEN CANYON – MAY 2015

Tasmania – Mt Anne Circuit

Posted on March 2, 2015 by marilyn

The first dayI guess this trip was almost doomed from the start!
