Today's walk lead by Bob was a new walk to the group and the day was forecast to be warm although a little cool.
It's the first time we been lead on our walk by and excavator.
It was a bit wet underfoot from the rain over the previous couple of weeks.
The first climb starts.
The remains of some of the construction associated with the quarry at the start of the walk.
Still climbing.
Gaestrum triplex. (Earth Star).
Choosing the lunch spot.
Off we go on a new track for us.
A local who was quite relaxed in the sun as we passed by.
Our first open views across to Midway Point.
Our next view was across to the Derwent River with the Bridgewater Gerry coming down the valley from New Norfolk.
A view across the pine forest at the back of Seven Mile Beach.
A workman had obviously lost his pick while doing track maintenance.
Climbing again.
Lunch spot on Flagstaff Hill.
A bridge and mountain view.
Chris pointing out that one may be able to see the proposed Cable Car from here.
After lunch the walk starts to descend.
An example of some of the bike track construction as the Meehan Range is also a Mountain Bike venue.
Nearing the end of today's walk with everyone smiling, it could be because everyone had a good walk or because they were glad that the walk was finally over.
There were 15 walkers who enjoyed a good walk over 11 kms in just on 4 hours.
