Just got back from #walking a VERY short section of the Two Bays track on the #MorningtonPeninsula
My take-aways:
1. people who #bushwalk for fun are crazy
2. I am not as fit as I thought I am
3. Even if I'm not that fit, I appreciate and am #grateful that I have a body that can move in a functional manner and so I can even contemplate walking said track

A Taswegian and keen bushwalker. I also enjoy sailing (sailbord/windsurver and Hobie Cat). Geographic Information Systems is my job as well as a hobby.
I started up this Mastodon instance because... well, I'm not sure why really. I generally avoid social media services. I'll give this a shot though, and see how it goes.

What a fun and delightful story about bringng back the Edwardian Era to bushwalking in Tasmania:
I went for a 'hot girl walk' up the One Tree Hill trail in Tararua Forest Park in Featherston over the weekend - although it was pretty short, it was all uphill and gave my lungs a run for their money!

I went for a bush walk and found lots of photogenic nature including trees stretching tall toward the canopy, tree trunks, both standing and fallen, covered in moss and lichen and a bonus lace monitor.
A paddy melon crossed our path and blue wrens darted through the trees. Sadly, they all moved too quickly to be photographed.

A magnificently wise old tree - pic taken on a bushwalk in a caldera nearly a year ago.

#Flashback to our #bushwalk in Lamington NP, SEQ - one of the Myriad #waterfalls off the Border Track. So spoiled by this incredible country of ours #rainforest #Gondwanaland #blessed #australia

Fabulous day returning to Deep Pass yesterday... so lush with recent rains. The canyon and split rock were as fun as ever; we last camped here 15 years or so years ago. #bushwalk #wilderness #adventure #family #Australia

I like to go for a walk early on Christmas morning. It's the quietest time of the entire year. This morning I walked the bush trail in the hills near my house. The sun was barely up over the hills and peeking through a few thin clouds. I could feel invisible spider silk on my arms and face and that's how I knew I was the first person on the trail today.

A few more shots from our weekend #bushwalk on Kunanyi (Mt Wellington) including the #Tasmania waratah, dragon heath and colourful lichens #marineexplorer

Sydney suburbs bushwalk with doggie and came across this introduced “cykel weed” . Common in the inner city and out west. Usually found with its relative the “shoptrolley” DogsOfMastodon #Sydney #DundasValley #BushWalk

Giant stinging tree, baby one pictured here. The little hairs stick into your skin injecting a toxin, It hurts - a LOT (first hand experence with both plants). It will not stop stinging till the fine hairs are removed. It takes a long time for your body to push it out of the skin layer.
As seen in the photo Stinging Nettle growing with Stinging Tree

My #Introduction post.
These are a few of my favourite things! I spend a lot of time transporting kids to sports, and volunteering at these sports, organising though, not coaching! Love reading, aim to read 50 books each year. I get a lot of satisfaction from volunteering locally and working on regional agricultural statistics. We have travelled a lot through WA and love finding new places off the beaten track to explore. We still discover new places within 200km radius of Esperance!
