Projects
While most of our trips are fairly haphazard, and are generally born from someone spotting an interesting area on a map, getting excited by an old trip report, or hearing about a good area from a fellow bushwalker or canyoner, every so often we decided to be a little more methodical.
The Projects section is about bringing together the trip reports for areas where we doing a series of walks to more thoroughly explore a region. Generally these pet projects will focus on areas of particular aesthetic, historic, or environmental interest, although it’s amazing what odd themes can get embedded in the back of your mind, nagging you to follow them up.
