Walls of Jerusalem.

Following on from the fires and rains earlier this year, Parks have confirmed that access to the Walls and to the Gullet is restricted. The Mersey State Forest Road will be closed just after the turning to the Devil's Gullet for at least 6-7 months, maybe more if the most recent rains have caused more damage. Access to the Walls now is from over the Plateau although the Lake Augusta road is also closed  but due to open "shortly". Contact Parks at the Great Western Tiers Field Centre on (03) 67012104 for more info.

Devil's Gullet.

The Gullet burnt. The lookout and track are closed till further notice, the lookout being fire damaged through heat stress. The cliff line apparently burnt intensely and looks spectacular without the vegetation cover - but the rock will inevitably be unstable in parts. Again, contact Parks at the Great Western Tiers Field Centre on (03) 67012104 for more info.

Meehan Range (including Rocky Tom)

As far as we can deduce,  some of the range is still technically private land but Parks are developing a management plan for the whole area. The CCT has been asked for input and Stu Scott and Tony McKenny will be liaising with Shannon Fox at Parks - let us know if you have any comments you want us to put forward.
