Pipeing

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Me Troyski and Damien aka 'Super Frenchie' went for a bush walk South of Sydney a long way from anybody on Sunday. We went to a part of the trails were it seems there were really not any other walkers. We walked for 7 hours and only saw about 4 people in total on the bush trails.

Near the beginning we found a huge pipe that seemed to lead on for a long distance so Troy suggested we carry out part of his family tradition of what him and his dad used to do of 'Pipeing' the Rose way!

Basically you find a pipe somewhere in the countryside and walk along it and follow it for Km’s. So a bushwalk turned into a pipeing adventure. Damien wasn’t impressed with walking along the pipe for km's with his half metal leg so he stuck to the bush track. The pipe went forever, eventually ending at a dam.

We ended up at a dam and this impressive bit of human construction or should I say digging was the emergency water runoff for the dam, this thing was cut SO deep into the ground, must of taken a hell of a lot of explosive to make.

We found a big mirror at the dam so had some fun :)

at the end it got very dark QUICKLY and we got lost BADLY, in the very end we staggered up a hill and onto a road, we were saved, back to humanity!

We found the nearest train station and sat down and waited for out train, very tired after 8 hours out in the bush in the winter time.
