Over the Easter weekend four of our club members,

Over the Easter weekend four of our club members, led by Pete, did a multi-day walk over at the Cobberas. Starting from near Native dog flat, we went up to cobberas peak no 1, did a wild camp overnight, then down to cowombat flat overnight via cobberas peak no2. Then we headed bush up over the Pilot, camped at the tin mine huts. Then a day of 4wd track walking to another wild camp, before the last day walking out to suggen buggen.
A great walk, half of it following overgrown tracks and brumby tracks.

Part 2: The 2nd part of the club weekend involved

Part 2: The 2nd part of the club weekend involved the Howitt Spur/Howqua Feeder track which starts at Upper Howqua camping area up and follows Howitt Spur up to The West Peak of Mt Howitt. The views across to Helicopter Spur, Mt Magdala, Hells Window and Mt Cobbler were spectacular. A visit to Craig's Hut was a great way to finish the weekend.

Part 1: A great club hike hike up to Mt Howitt, starting at the Howqua River and climbing up Helicopter Spur negotiating the rock faces. The views over Mt Magdala and Hells Window on the way Mt Howitt were worth the effort before having lunch at The West Peak of Mt Howitt. Then we descended down the Howqua Feeder Arm to our base camp.

Today we had a ride from myrtleford to wandiligong

Today we had a ride from myrtleford to wandiligong (just past bright) return. Lunch in the park at porepunkah. It was the ‘easy one’ before Everton uphill to Beechworth in a couple of weeks, and then Everton/myrtleford (going over Taylor’s gap), before around the Hume dam after that.
Irrelevant be good to do this one again in a couple of weeks though with the changing autumn tree colours. #borderbushwalkingclub

For anyone that loves trundling along on the rail

For anyone that loves trundling along on the rail trails, we have a series of bike rides coming up over the next couple of months. The first is this Sunday, from myrtleford to wandiligong return (about 70km but no real hills). Booking details on our website. Fancy road bikes are not required (although they make it easy 😁) - as long as you can cover the distance over the course of the day (9:30 to 4ish?) and change a tube if needed.
