Marks Offroad Adventures and Daytrips

     A few weeks ago when I was looking for places to go on Google Maps, I came across  a large area of bushland with a few granite outcrops spread around,  I have been curious about this place for a few weeks but couldn't work out how to get there, I noticed there was a few tracks around and it was close to a rest area, I don't always get the chance to use Forester for my trips, the other car is an old I30 ,and I can't take that offroad much, so after spending some time on Google maps, I found a route to get there but with the use of my Mountain bike, so I folded the back car seats down and took the front wheel off the bike and put it in the back of the I30. Making my way to the rest area unloaded the bike put the front wheel back on, luckily it has the quick release wheel nuts,       I grabbed the camera bag and off I went, I worked out that it was about a 1.5km ride, not that far I was confident my knee was going to handle it.

I took quite a few videos today mainly cause I want to add trip videos as well in the future but that is work in progress at the moment. Here is a few from Canning Dam.      Over all there was quite a bit of Fungi around, I will probably come back in a few days and have another look around. after...

 Hi all its that time of year again when the Fungi are starting to pop up here and there and shortly the birds will be getting ready for breeding season, I am still in the process of updating the posts and editing the many photos I have taken in the last couple of years, its a long process for me and I don't really have to much time to spend on it, but we are still working on it, hopefully have more posts up soon for you to look at. So keep watching this space for updated or New Posts.       I have done quite a few trips out and about exploring perth hills lately so I have many posts to create, with winter starting now the waterfalls will start flowing and lakes will fill up, in a couple of months the wildflowers will start growing and the birds with be looking for partners for the breeding season its a good time of year to start getting out and about, unfortunately after spring has sprung and the weather gets warmer the snakes start coming out, and we get fire ...
