The Great North Walk - Patonga to Mt Wondabyne & Return December 2019

Not much to report concerning this one. I had some difficulty deciding where to go, there were fires in all directions from Sydney. After studying the fire maps and the National Parks web pages, I settled on the Great North Walk (GNW) section from Patonga to Mt Wondabyne and return. The nearest fire was about 40km away. This is in the Brisbane Waters National Park, a bit further south from section of the GNW that I did in my September 2019.

A creek near Patonga is usually dry at low tide, high tide can mean wet feet
I don't know if this is a recent arrangement or not
