I hope everyone who loves the bush gets a chance to enjoy it on their break, we are indeed very lucky to have the way of life we do. Enjoy!

Merry Christmas all. Yes we are more fortunate than many, and I'll definitely be getting out into the bush.
Dan, I found some stunning Christmas bells like that on Twelvetrees Range over the Christmas break last year. They contrast splendidly with the landscape.

Hope everyone was good throughout the year & recieved the Christmas pressies they longed for...

In the coming year...may you wear the lugs off your bushwalking footwear, feel the cool mountain mist tickling your warm skin, sit & gaze in awe through parting clouds, in panic hop over a unseen serpent, get soaked to the skin & on the edge of hypothermia, giggle as you struggle to stand during powerful wind gusts, feel the weight of tumbling waters on your body at the base of a waterfall...but above all else, return safely to do it all over & over again. :wink:

Enjoy the New Years celebrations & have a great 2018 everyone.

More or less how I finished off this one. Although the giggling was more like semi-hysterical laughter trying to hold onto the paddle and keep the kayak afloat in the teeth of gale-force wind gusts and sleet showers. One of the most exhilarating half hours I've ever spent.
