The lower Grose, where everyone goes

Not quite everyone, but a lot more than go to the Upper Grose (see here: 2019 post  )

The other day we did a very scenic circuit, incorporating the Avoca Lookout, two crossings of the lower Grose River, a surprisingly navigable section of the Engineers Track, and a return via the fire trail route. It was a nice day out.



Here we are descending the steep track below the lookout.









Then, down near the river, we crossed layers of debris left by the big flood of a few weeks ago. A river crossing would have been rather unimaginable back then.






A couple of hours later it's back across via the quicksands. Then up the big long fire trail, and back out to the car.
