Rob Roy. I really love running out here (and only 17mins drive from home!). Got to the top by running clockwise for the first time ever, which made for a more interesting run as I noticed different things. Stopped the watch at the top of the nasty descent to the car - it was even hard walking down.

Solo bushwalk up Tidbinbilla Mountain (1615m). 5hrs return. Found the track up the spur all right (very steep), but then it was a bit of a push through the scrub with no track to the top. Great day for it with nice views. Had to be careful when descending to get back to the right drop-off place along the ridge, but found the cairn all right and it was a quick descent from there.
Was a bit worried about snakes given that I was in thick bush on my own on a Summer’s day, but only saw one brown snake 5mins from the car on the wide Lyrebird trail!

A different loop on Farrer.
