Yellomundee Regional Park update for 19 Feb

Hi all,

Following the severe erosion damage that occured at Yellomundee in early February, we still recommend that you give this area the miss for a while. It really is in poor shape, with a lot of water still running down the trails (inspected Sunday 19 Feb).

Following consultation between NPWS and WSMTB, the following areas have been closed (and roped off):
- the area west of the fire road, under the transmission power lines. This included both Towers of Power, and V-ditch.
- the area north of Shaws Farm (tar) road. This includes the track down to the Trotting Track. Both bridges over Shaws Creed have been washed away.

It would be best if everyone just gave Yellomundee a rest until we are able to get in and do a heap of work. Planning for this is occurring - we have to consult NPWS.

Stay tuned - we will need lots of help.

thanks for your co-operation
