Report

A mixed gender team consisting of Jase, Carolynn, Gavin and Lisa. It was Lisa's birthday and so we thought we might run this short but very challenging route in the Blue Mountains. We started at Evans Lookout and ran an anti-clockwise direction around the loop back to Evans Lookout. It was quite dry and so the creeks and waterfalls were not in full flow. As we started at approx 0820hrs local the sun was up but not radiating too much heat at this time in the morning. There was plenty of tree shade along the way, quite a bit of scrambling over boulders and fallen trees. We rested for a while at Junction Rock and then started the climb back out of the canyon to Govetts Leap, in awe of the waterfall way above our heads. Eventually we found the top and after a brief rest ran along the clifftop track from Govetts Leap to Evans Lookout. We finished almost 3 hours later.
