Queanbeyan Landcare will host a morning walk on Sunday 16 June along sections of 'the escarpment' much of which is likely under threat as a result of road building and residential development that will facilitate. Contact Tom Baker on 6297 4920 or 0415 839 017 or at allbaker@bigpond.net.au  Council will soon call for public comment on various strategic plans - some of which deal with the escarpment - so the walk is an opportunity to see what Queanbeyan stands to lose.

Meet at top of Muresk street, Farrer.

Bring cameras, binoculars, hat, & wear walking shoes
