Track Notes

A lovely Canberra Autumn day. Plenty of time to wander and chat with new and old friends. Although we did start with 9 and end with 5 - Sigrid left us at the base of Mt Taylor to return to her home; Barb and Nathan left us at the top of Mt Taylor to walk back down to cars parked at Eternity church; and Roger left us after Oakey Hill to get on his bike to ride back to pick up his car.

No surprises, except we were a little quicker than I'd imagined.
