I drove through the Yaouk Valley and turned north after Old Yaouk and continued up a steep four wheel drive track to Yaouk Gap on the ACT/NSW border.  I parked the truck and headed off south east into the bush. It was really tough going and I was out of time. So after bashing my way half way to Mt Scabby I turned around and headed down into the valley again.

There are huge slabs of granite in Namadgi mountains.
Regeneration from the 2003 bushfires continues.
Mt Morgan from Scabby Ridge

This valley must have been a lake bed.
A perfect day.
The valley has maybe 20 inhabitants.
