Bees Nest Hill

This is a steep firetrail hill. It certainly wasn't smooth when we visited (July '08) and had some large, loose rocks at that time.

Blue Gum Sniggle

Single track section of Blue Gum Swap Trail. At the South end of this there is a tough climb out over technical rocks up to the school.

Blue Gum Swap

Although the topo map says Blue Gum Swamp trail runs along the ridge line just to the East of this valley, signs at the location seem to suggest this trail down in the valley is Blue Gum Swap.

Mixture from firetrail in the North, to thinner, almost single track in the middle opening up a bit to almost firetrail again at the South end.

Rough Route to Blue Gum

From behind the school this runs down a steep and rocky hill to meet up with Blue Gum Swamp Trail.

Shaws Ridge

Although Google says this is Blue Gum Swamp Trail signs at this location name it Shaws Ridge. That makes a lot more sense as it runs along the ridge.

Pretty much your average firetrail - the climb/descent at the North end is pretty steep though.

Springwood Ridge

Runs along the top of Springwood Ridge. Standard undulating fire trail with a really rather nice view on the end known as Grose Mountain Lookout:
