Charlie Mooreland Day Trip Sat 4 June

Post by cuboid »

POSTPONED

This trip will start around the Charlie Moorelands area and explore north toward Borumba Dam near Imbil. This is hilly country with some nice views, a few little creeks to cross and in the past we have also found some very slippery sections as well (weather dependent). The plan is a day trip but if anybody would like to camp, their are campgrounds at Charlie Mooreland and at the Bourmba Dam end.

Where: Charlie Mooreland Day trip
Cost: Free
When: Saturday 4 June
Meeting Place: Meet at the BP Servo Morayfield at 8:30
UHF: Channel 13
Trip Standard: Blue
Trip Leader: Mark

Lunch will be out in the bush so bring some food and drink (and maybe a chair if you like the comforts of home :) )

A terrific area - I look like being a starter for the day trip.

We are going to have to watch the weather on this one, if there is any decent rain in the area we will need to postpone as there are plenty of steep red clay hills.

Yes - The weather forecast doesn't look too good at the moment. 30 to 90mm of rain.

Yeah - weather forecast definitely doesn't look promising. A bit more than just a sprinkle by all reports.

Actually, an e-mail hasn't gone out to the group, so if they don't log onto the forum, they are unlikely to be aware of the trip.
But given the weather forecast, it may be cancelled anyway???

Trip Postponed
Due to the very poor weather forecast, it has been decided to postpone the trip. I will look at running it a little later in the month, all being well.
