Baw Baw National Park

30/3/12 - 1/4/12

A 4pm departure saw us arrive at the Mt Erica car park in time to complete the 35 minute walk to Mushroom Rocks, with ample time to set up camp and cook dinner before settling in for a cosy night in the Marmot! After a very leisurely start we walked steadily up hill to Mt Erica at 1509m. and while there are teasing views from various points along the way the bush is the real delight. 

 We continued along the Baw Baw Plateau to Camp Saddle before heading to Mt St. Gwinear. Overlooking the Thomson Dam and surrounding Mountains the views are beautiful. We returned along the track to Mustering Flat - (or so we were told) and spent a very private night on our own little stretch of paradise (see pic below). We woke the next day, again after a leisurely lay in and wandered back to our car. The walk back down is obviously fast especially with 'Fast Forward' leading the way. 





Fast Forward leading the way!
