Mt Maroon - April 2009

Good Friday, 10-04-09

The weather is starting to cool down so its the start of our bush walking season. We all enjoyed climbing Mt Maroon last year that this was an obvious choice for my first walk of the year. Mt Maroon is located around 1 hrs drive south of Brisbane and is located in the Mt Barney national Park.

The bush walking group this time consisted o Nick, Dionne, Phil, Rob, Mark, myself and Richard who is visiting from Aberdeen, Scotland.

The temperature was still warm, and the clouds looked threatening, but lucky the rain seemed to go around us all day. The scenery was was great as always and we were treated to numerous rock orchids in flower along the top half of the walk.
