Mt Helder in winter

Postby naturelover » Sun 03 Sep, 2017 10:36 am

We went up Helder on the last day of winter. The bush was a lot thicker than I was expecting, but it was a marvellous mountain. Pictures and stories in my blog (natureloverswalks.com)

Yeah, great place, not the best for high camping anywhere near the summit, but. Looks cramped there.

Well, comfort is never on my list of priorities when I go camping

Agreed. View is always the first priority when selecting a campsite.
