Spent today out in ze mountains, hiking around. Alli came along seeing she wasn’t working for a change, as well as Tom and his friend Lucy.

We drove out to Tidbinbilla and then took the Camel Back Ridge trail, turning off just before the Camel Back Hump. From there we headed back south west-ish-ly along the ridge and eventually up John’s Peak.

I was hoping to get up Tidbinbilla Peak and/or Mountain, but it’s actually pretty rough going along the ridge, with loose rocks and lots of regrowth, so it’s slow going.

We could have made it a bit further, but took it easy and had a nice leisurely lunch on top of John’s Peak before heading down to the car.

I’d still like to get up Tidbinbilla sometime, it’d have to be either a 2 day affair (which I think is verboten because of Bendora dam), or a seriously fast-paced 7am start kind of walk. Although I don’t think Tidbinbilla opens until 9am, so there goes that idea. I’ll find a way.
