Walls Of Jerusalem 8 th March

We are all picked up at our hotels by Stan and in the other vehicle Senna to the
carpark at the start of The Walls of Jerusalem National Park. After loading scroggin
and our tents we set off for our days walk, and the first challenge is the 350m climb
climb up to Trappers Hut along the Walls of Jerusalem Track, along the way we
pass Solomon’s Jewels and other Tans and through Herod’s gate, Lake Solome
and Damascus Gate between Solomons Throne and The Temple. Then onto
Dixon's Hut where we set up our tents for the next 4 nights.

It is a longish day starting at about 720m to 1340m and total climb is 620m, with
plenty of time for drink stops and photo opportunities arriving at camp at around
4.30pm.

Being a Tasmanian long weekend we passed many other walkers as well as other
members of our bush club on their own walks.

Next is time to setup our tents and relax with a cup of hot chocolate and then a
lovely dinner prepared by out guides
