    Passed through 9/5/22. Water tank 100% full. A pity we can’t camp here on this long day!

    I liked this spot for a break. It was really quiet and well protected from wind. You can see Victor Harbor from here.

    Sounds like someone didn’t like it being there.

    I will report this to our Maintenance group

    Thanks

    Another great job by the Friends.

    The Tank and shelter sit just below the peak (and trig point) at Mt Cone. On the day I hiked through, (early May 2012) there was quite a wind and the site was well protected. Tank was above 20% full.

    The lower step on the stile over the fence has been removed or fallen off though.
