Another section of the Great North Walk. The track head for this section is adjacent to a tributary that drains into the Hunter Valley. So not that far from Newcastle. The route this time involved passing through private property and a solid climb in the Watagans National Park, to the telecommunications tower on the ridge. I disturbed a deer in the national park and further on a slender snake. I suspect the snake was a type of whip snake.
