It was Su Li’s birthday celebration and she chose a great place – Blue Gum Forest. We walked there via Lockleys Pylon from the Leura to Mt Hay Road. In the party were Martin , Col, Mark, Disco Stu, Albert, Su Li and myself. At the campsite at Acacia Flat we were joined by Rik and Wendy who had walked in via Evans Lookout.
On the way out to Lockleys Pylon the wildflowers were magnificent. Particularly in the heath country near the Pylon. One interesting plant we spotted were a couple of white fringe lilies (Thysanotus tuberosus) – the flowers are usually a mauve – purple colour.
