Creek Crossing.Lees Paddocks..Sunday 29th May

Postby Haydynb » Thu 26 May, 2016 6:08 pm

Hi all..

Thinking of heading into the paddocks this Sunday for a day walk. Just looking for some feedback from the experienced walkers here re levels of the creeks that need crossing going in and out given recent rains. Are we likely to be able to rock hop across :) or will we need to wade across :( . My better half is not keen to do the later...

Thoughts appreciated☺

Given the recent Rain I suspect you won't get too many rock hopping crossings especially Big and Survey and even some of the smaller unnamed ones could be on the deeper side ,thankfully there is a good bridge across the Wurragarra but even the approach to that can be a wee bit wet at times.
Still I don't think you will actually need to "wade" any more than knee deep I would suggest that you change out of your boots for Crocs if this is the case.
Enjoy you walk wish I had my fitness back to do it.

Thx Corvus. Might do Rinadeena instead i think. My wife first outing might be better than swapping boots as we go...
