Manly Dam update for 02 Dec

Area: 
Manly Dam
Status: 
Amber/Some Issues

I rode it around midday today.
I must have overlooked when it was raining because it was surprisingly wet.
All the puddles were full but the fire trail and most of the track was dry.
It was irritating more than anything.
Worth a ride if you are desperate, but if you are on the fence wait until tomorrow.

Do you have more information?

If you've ridden here lately please add a more recent report. This will be useful even if the condition is the same as updates expire after 30 days.
Please do not post comments with such information - post a new update with the link above.

With all the hot weather we've been getting, it's time to start getting out a little earlier!

This ride will be at social pace, with time to regroup, take photos of the views, catch your breath, re-do sections if you wish. Distance is about 15km, with some elevation change and a small amount of road riding in the middle. Great views from parts of Centre Track, as advised by Rob.

I haven't ridden Centre Track myself yet, so we can explore together. Come and join us for the best part of the day. Eye-wink

keep off the carvings??????

How this? Went to have a look round the cliffs between Bondi and Tammaramma a few weeks ago to see sculpture by the sea and noticed a deliberate break in the fence where the council encourage people to walk over the top of and have a look at the aboriginal carvings!!! maybe the NPWS should talk to Waverley council?

Juliane and I have been out there twice now to build and scout for a new trail up the hill. I talked to the manager and he promised me that he will clear an old fireroad with his earthmover so we have a bit more trail there.

Now for the hill:
The good news first: J and I were able to cut in a nice new trail that leads around the hill. The 200 or so meters after that should be fairly easy to cut in

Proposed route will be: Wyatt Ave -> short XC -> Technical descent -> Up Quarry -> Along Mona Vale Rd -> Ryland -> Wildflower -> Kitchener St -> Down Cascades -> Bear Creek -> Heath->Wyatt Ave.

That descent is really rather tricky but you could always walk the bits you don't feel confident about.
