Hi

I will be leading the following weekend walk on March 22 - 23, 2003 under
the auspices of the Perth Bushwalkers Club. If you are a Club member and
interested in coming on this walk, please email me to express your
interest. If you are not a Club member, but are interested in this walk,
please email me directly to discuss your options.

The walk description as it will be published in the March Venturer is as
follows:

TUMLO-DRIVER EXPLORER 37 + 310

This medium paced weekend backpack will be a predominately off-track
exploration of the Mount Keats - Murray River - Tumlo Hill sections of the
Tumlo and Driver forestry blocks east of Waroona. Overnight accommodation
will be at the five star Bibbulmun Track campsite, Dookanelly. This walk,
as the title suggests, is an exploration of the area. No reconnaissance of
the proposed walk will be done before hand, therefore, interested walkers
should have some off-track walking experience, should be comfortable with
an exploratory approach to walking, and be prepared for possible river
crossings and hopefully a view or two. An early start from Perth is
anticipated with an early to mid evening return on the Sunday. The group
size will be limited to eight. To express your interest, please email
Andrew at andrew@<Remove 12345>aushiker.com.

Also I have two other walks pencilled in on the Perth Bushwalkers Club
program. They are:

April 18 - 20, 2003 (Easter). Murray Valley Circuit. This is a three-day,
on-track walk following the Murray Valley Circuit, Dwellingup. It will be
a medium paced, small group walk, camping in tents and will involve at
least one swim of the Murray River (subject to rain). Approximately 46 km.

May 31 - June 1, 2003 (Foundation Day weekend). White Horse Hills. It is
envisioned that this will be a two day, mixed on-off track walk, with the
Saturday night spent at the White Horse campsite on the Bibbulmun
Track. It is envisaged that this will be a mixture of track and off-track
walking on the first day and will an emphasis on track walking on the
second day. It will be a walk suitable for folks with some, but limited
pack-carry experience. Details to be finalised at a later date, however, I
expect the distance to be around the 32 - 36 km mark over the weekend.

If you are interested in either of these two walks, again please email to
discuss.

Regards
Andrew
