For a map of the area click here https://goo.gl/maps/2UkmdWeWeNXiZDhZ6
Safety is important as the ground is uneven. Wear warm clothing and enclosed shoes and bring water or hot tea/coffee.
Also please be aware of others around you and ask if it is ok to turn on a torch so you don’t ruin others’ photos.
The backup plan if weather is storming/raining is that we will meet at the church hall in Pennant Hills.
Kind regards
