Mount Murray Anderson - September 2025

Mount Murray Anderson, not so much a mountain, but rather a ridge of rock extending into Hawksbury waterways, just north of Sydney. The walk was mostly through scrubby undergrowth, the turn around point is an exposed narrow knife edged rock with a magnificent view of Cowan and Smiths Creeks. Along the way there are several large rock slabs with aboriginal rock art, see the photos below. 

This cairn is on the highest point of the track.
