Thanks for posting. What's the setup for your camera? Are you using a stickpic? For that matter, what camera are you using?

I did this walk about 2 months ago. I started from the gorge and walked through to Berowra Waters. It was a hot / humid day. I got back to Crosslands and was stuffed. To get back to my car I called a taxi and waited 2.5 hrs! (after 3 frustrating calls to the taxi service, one eventually arrived)

Hey Flatfoot,

Yeah the Stikpic is the go in this vid. The camera is a Olympus TG310, great things.

That climb back up the ridge from Berowra Waters is a killer when it not the first of the day... Nice paprt of the world for a walk in the bush thats not too far from anything.

Thanks for watching.

Hi Leppy
I have been following your video's and did enjoy this one.
I loved watching the decision making to cross or not on the lake side walk, shame about the camera getting too much to drink. Although your latest video with new camera does look heaps better.

Hum I am still hungry for a muffin after watching your more recent video

Great post Leppy. This is part of one of my favourite local walks. I usually walk from Hornsby to Mt Ku-Ring-Gai or Berowra and pass Blackash campsite on the way . I did not know it actually had a name.

Another good one Leppy. I always use the seat when climbing the hill to Berowra. :)
