Just sharing a couple of pics and a message my dad sent to me today.
Darren, you must have some Genes from your grandfather. Here is grandpa at the back with a scarf on with a bushwalking group on Mount Baw Baw in the 1930s. Peaked hat in the second one. 🥰🥰

Starting and ending at the Wedge River Picnic Area, this 3.5km return journey is a challenging Grade 4 trail, taking roughly 3 hours to navigate through rugged, quartzite landscapes.
It’s a very cool walk.

Funny how different the warnings sound when you’re a woman.
That stuck with me.
