Parking on Pinnacle Rd is very difficult and to safely park near
Sawpit Walking Track we had to go 1 km up the road. We were doing
the walk as on our last trip there were interesting orchid leaves seen.
Sawpit Track is rocky, steep and difficult. The orchid season this
year was late and dry so it was with disappointment that at the GPS
points we had recorded, we could find nothing of interest. At the top of
the track at the Organ Pipes Track we considered our options and decided
the best way back to the car was to go along the Organ Pipes Track to
the Chalet and then back down the Pinnacle Rd to our car. It was
obvious that the Organ Pipes Track had been recently upgraded as it was
an easy walk back to the Chalet. Walking back to the car on
Pinnacle Rd required care as it is a busy road up to the top of the
mountain. We did find an orchid flowering and found lots of mating
crickets. |
