The day before some of us had visited a nice canyon in the pagoda country on the west of Wollemi National Park. On this day we headed into the Wollangambe Wilderness to visit a canyon that none of us had been down before. So for us it was an exploratory trip.

Party - Rik, Audrey, Richie, Digi Dave, John, Chuin Nee, Martin, Steffi, Rob, Dave N
