Party - Stu, Enmoore, Rob, Wendy, Martin, Steffy, Digi Dave, John,
Chuin Nee, Sarah, Rik, Zen, Dave N
This was the first time any of the party had been up on Donkey Mountain
in the Wolgan Valley. It was a fantastic place - and we all had a good
time exploring, scrambling and enjoying fantastic views. There is a lot
of things worth seeing in such a compact location. We also had some
really first class food - thanks to everyone and some excellent wines
to enjoy.....
Thanks to Tom Williams and Albert Chetcuti for some advice on the
mountain.
The photos have been spread out on three pages. The other pages can be

its
a bit far to jump out to.

Above - We spot a nice sheltered place to camp - if only we can find a
way down to it.

development....
