Hi Sluggers, Sorry about the off topic post.
I have a project in the Blue Mountains, working to eradicate blackberry from a difficult-to-reach place in the Blue Mountains National Park. Saint Helena Crater, see the web site... http://miller.emu.id.au/pmiller/st_helena/index.html The NPWS work plan for Feb-Mar-Apr 2010 has included spraying about half of the 7ha infestation. I have been invited back to re-map, to have an objective measure of progress. I have secured permission to bring in equipment necessary to re-map the blackberry presence in the crater all in one go (last time it took me three weekend trips). The plan is for a four day effort from Thu 29-Jul to Sun 1-Aug, but you don't have to go for all 4 days. See the following link for details: http://miller.emu.id.au/pmiller/st_helena/trip/2010/07/29/index.html Do you have a GPS? Or a widget that contains a GPS? Can you load waypoints into your widget? Can your widget direct you towards a waypoint? You do not have to be an experienced bush walker, but you do need a tent (or to share one) and a good sleeping bag. Your rucsac (or single bag) will be trucked in for you. So, community minded gps-owning people, how about coming along? Just to be clear: This is NOT my annual CodeCon trip. That is in October. http://miller.emu.id.au/pmiller/codecon/2010/index.html Regards Peter Miller <pmil...@opensource.org.au> /\/\* http://miller.emu.id.au/pmiller/ PGP public key ID: 1024D/D0EDB64D fingerprint = AD0A C5DF C426 4F03 5D53 2BDB 18D8 A4E2 D0ED B64D See http://www.keyserver.net or any PGP keyserver for public key.
