BLACKTOWN ZONE HIKE 20TH AND 21ST OF MAY 2000

Our Scouts attended the Blacktown Zone Hike in May this year, joining all the other Troops in the Zone. 36 Scouts and 14 Leaders had a great time walking through the bush of Kuringai National Park and camping overnight at Crosslands Reserve on Berowra Creek. We started at Blacktown Railway station at 8:30 am and caught a train to Mt Kuringai Station. After a few train changes we finally got to the start of the track and as you can see from the following photos we had a great time.
