Another section of the Great North Walk done this time. My turn around point was Mt Warrawolong, the highest point on the Great North Walk. Mt Warrawolong is one of the many volcanic intrusions in to the Sydney/Hawkesbury sandstone. The vegetation in the igneous soil on the mountain is much lusher than in the surrounding sandstone. I was disappointed, there was no view from the summit due to the lush vegetation. The only wildlife of note I encountered was the tail end of snake slithering into the undergrowth.
