Gwenda Tait was our capable leader on our Wednesday 14 October walk of 7.4km along the very scenic Plain Creek Track at Sawmill Settlement, on the road between Mansfield and Mt. Buller. Signboards pointed out items of historic interest along the way. The gently sloping track followed the burbling fern-fringed creek, through the tall forest and up to the waterfall viewing platform, where we marvelled at the stunning sight of large volumes of water tumbling down the rocky slope - a bonus after the wet season. We were able to listen to the Creek as we sat on damp logs for lunch. Afternoon tea in the Picnic Ground gave some of us a chance to cool our feet in the Delatite River. Bliss. Thank you so much Gwenda for a really lovely walk.
