Insurance
QBW has renewed its Personal Accident and Public Liability
Insurance for members for this financial year. Many thanks must
go to VicWalk who did the difficult and long negotiations.
Once again there was only one insurance company that was
willing to quote for Public Liability. Discussions with four other
Insurance companies turned out to be unrewarding.
The new insurance policy is a mixed bag with some good and
bad points. There is a special article on Insurance on the back
page of the Newsletter giving the details.
Monthly Meeting Talks
Continuing the policy of the Club to pass on skills and training
associated with bushwalking, there have been short talks at the
end of each General Meeting.
At the June meeting, Richard and David gave a talk on
bushwalking equipment in general while at the July meeting
Trevor Smith gave an in-depth talk on sleeping mats.
Many thanks to all who are willing to share their skills and
knowledge. If you can help in giving a short talk on a topic related
to bushwalking please contact David Haliczer.
Beginners Rogaine
Nine QBW members came along to this event organized by the
Queensland Rogaine Association. It was held at Gap Creek
Reserve in Brisbane Forest Park on Saturday, 14th of June.
The programme was primarily for people who had little or no
rogaine experience and it comprised of some presentation time,
hands on exercises and a navigation exercise.
There were about 40 people in total who came along, some of
them with no bushwalking background but who had friends who
rogained and wanted to try it out.

August 2003
The first section was a talk on rogaining tactics and navigation.
Navigation does involve a map and compass but significantly
differs from what a bushwalker does. For a start the maps are
aligned with magnetic North so no adjustment for magnetic
declination is needed. Also the maps do not have grid numbers.
After our instructor showed everyone how to take a bearing, we
were sent out to find one waypoint as a test. This was not made
easy as some man made features such as tracks had changed
since the map had been printed.
After lunch there was a mini rogaine just lasting over 2 hours.
Here we could pick which markers to go for and in what order.
The rogaine does help bushwalkers be more aware of their
surroundings while also giving enjoyment from the thrill of finding
a marker.
Thank you to QRA for organizing this event. Richard
Gatton Rogaine
The rogaine was held on Saturday, 12th of July. 5 club members
competed in this rogaine in 2 teams. One look at the map on
Saturday morning confirmed it would be a low scoring difficult
competition. There were masses of cliff lines, long distances
between checkpoints and a myriad of gullies and creeks to be
encountered.
230 people turned up to compete in the area that covered part of
Laidley State Forest and part private property. Our 2 teams did
very well considering the terrain and the competition, finding all of
the checkpoints they attempted. I spent the day helping out in the
Hash House, preparing food for the hungry hordes who arrived
back at 7pm at the end of the competition. I certainly appreciate
the hard work that goes on behind the scenes now.
Congratulations to the Qld Rogaine Club for another well
organised competition. Barbara

Palm Grove Tracks 27 April 2003
The Clayton's Walk….a walk you wish could have been …….
The elements were against us from the very start. A wet couple of
days beforehand but still we considered we could do it -.
Singing in the Rain?
A couple pulled out on the morning in question but still we drove
down in the hope. Where were the others?
Rain and more rain….these four decided let's do it anyway. But
wait there's more. Shortly we found the track down to the lookout
closed so let's backtrack and go the other way. Oh no! Jenyn's
Falls track also closed.
The towering trees, the lush green ferns and the fungus covered
stump were seen and appreciated however, we had the shortest,
quickest, wet walk one could imagine.
Oh well, next time……See you then.
Thank you Scott and Shelley for joining us. Bob & Danuta
Noowongbill Lookout 10 May 2003
Six walkers met at Trevor's place before heading to the Binna
Burra Information Centre where the walk began. It was an easy
three-kilometre stroll down to Gwongoorool Pool. We took our
time admiring the cliff faces, exploring some caves and waterfalls
and even spotting a giant land snail which was on the track.
At the pool we waited for Phil who had to make a quick rush up to
the Binna Burra kiosk to buy his lunch for the walk. After a tricky
and very slippery crossing of Coomera Creek we headed up a
ridge to the top of the Darlington Range. At the cliff edge we
contoured to the left till we got to the "get-up" point. Everyone
made it and then it was an easy walk to the lookout. We found
that we could see Split Rock, where some of us had been a few
weeks previously, across the valley.
We had lunch in bright sunshine at the Lookout and took a few
photos. From the Lookout we walked to an old rock cairn which
marked the spot to turn off to Fountain Falls. However we were
heading down the other direction and after some scrambling and
encounters with wait-a-while we made it to the old track system
beside Coomera Creek. We followed this back but at one point
had to slide under a large Hoop Pine, which had fallen across the
track.
Afternoon tea at Canungra ended the day perfectly. Thank you to
those who came to enjoy the walk. Richard

Twin/Goomoolahra Falls 18 May 2003
Purling Brook Falls Circuit at Springbrook National Park was still
closed so alternate plans were made. We decided to wander
down the Warrie Circuit to Goomoolahra Falls then double back
and walk the Twin Falls circuit track. Well worth it.
After meeting at Tallanbana picnic area we started down the
Warrie circuit, passed Rainbow Falls, a bit muddy and then on to
Goomoolahra Falls. With the rain that we had over the
proceeding days the falls were at their best. Cascading down the
cliff top and down into the valley below - a spectacular show.
Perfect place for light refreshments.
Retracing our steps we were soon heading down the Twin Falls
Circuit.
The track takes you behind Twin Falls and that is an eye opener.
The cool pool looked very inviting.
Further on was Blackfellow Falls and we even sighted some
fascinating cray. The quiet forest beckoned us on.
The interpretive signs gave valuable information about the
different forest types. Stunning views from the lookouts and track
added to the day. Watch out for that tree!
The board with Aboriginal names was very interesting. "Warrie"
means rushing.
Back at the picnic area we had a bite to eat and chat about the
walk. What a great day.
Thanks for joining us. Bob & Danuta
Stinson Wreck 18 May 2003
Sometimes you fluke one of those perfect walking days, crystal
clear sky, crisp air temperature and good company. Such was the
day for our walk to the Stinson.
On Track to the Stinson
The site of the Stinson Wreck is certainly the most historically
important walk in the National Park but more than this, it is just a
great walk. We began at the end of Christmas Creek Rd. and
soon after crossed the vigorously flowing Christmas Creek, some
of us choosing to cross barefoot, rather than risk wet boots so
early in the walk.
Our first stop was at Jim Westray’s gravesite. We stood at the
grave and were all moved by the natural beauty and serenity of
the site. We decided to have smoko there before the push up to
the Stinson.
It is a strenuous climb for the average walker, steep, slippery in
places due to the recent rain and a couple of small cliff faces to
be negotiated about two-thirds of the way up. Our group reached
the Stinson campsite at 11.40 am and decided to visit the wreck
(about 150 metres away down the eastern slope) before stopping
for lunch.
There’s not much left of the aircraft. We gathered around the
remains while Steve Hill set his new digital camera on delay and
then joined us for the obligatory photo.
The return journey was not without it’s moments. A small
miscalculation had us back tracking to relocate the cliff descent
and a minor fall for Lynne Cavanagh will be a good conversation
topic at work (with bruises and grazes for show and tell).
We arrived back at the cars at 4pm. The walk had taken eight
hours with breaks. We concluded a great day at MacDonald’s
Beaudesert.
Thank you to those who joined me on this walk. Welcome to
Michelle Cavanagh and Jerry Littee, both first time walkers with
QBW and thanks to Ken Walters for his assistance with
navigation. Trevor Cox
Charlie Moreland Park 31 May-1 June 2003
Summer Ck Falls
Linda and I met at Charlie Moreland campsite on Friday night. We
sat in the cab of my ute eating soy chips and musing
philosophically over our decision to start a fire before setting up
the tents while there was a break in the rain. We achieved neither
as the rain put out the fire in its early stages and it was then too
wet to put up the tents!
Saturday dawned about 11am with a break in the cloud and the
rain that had started at 3am eased off. We hid in our tents in case
anyone more adventurous than us actually turned up wanting to
go for a walk. It was a very relaxing and lazy start to the day,
looking out on the sights and listening to the sounds of the
surrounding forest and its wildlife.
After struggling back from a cafe in Kenilworth (to check the
weather outside the park) we took a 45-minute walk along Little
Yabba Creek. Our spirits lifted with the arrival of a real man in the
shape of Peter Pink complete with luxury camping accessories
such as a tarpaulin to sit under and pumpkin soup. Richard
arrived and we enjoyed an evening of yarns and musical chairs
as we shifted between fireside and shelter as the rain started and
stopped.
Geoff and Cheryl joined us on Sunday and so did blue skies for a
walk along Summer Creek to view some beautiful waterfalls, rock
pools and sheer rock walls. The slippery rocks turned us all into
candidates for the Minister of Silly Walks. We exited on a steep
ridge as the rain set in again, this time welcomed for keeping us
cool.
Thanks to those for not turning up on Saturday and to those who
did on Sunday! Thanks also to Steve Moyle for showing me this
walk. Melanie

Mt Castle T/W 31 May-1 June, 2003
Low cloud and fine mist greeted us at Goomburra State Forest on
Saturday morning but didn't deter us as we headed out to
Sylvester's Lookout. We continued on to the lookout above
Laidley Falls where the weather cleared enough for some views
of the valley below and Mt Castle.
Kings of the Castle
After a morning tea stop we continued down below Laidley Falls
and across to Hole-In-the-Wall where we stopped for photos and
a scramble. We stopped further along in the saddle for lunch then
contoured around and up to the top of Mt Castle where we set up
camp. The best thing about the cloudy weather was it deterred
other walkers and we had the mountain to ourselves.
Four of us decided on exploring the northern end of Mt Castle
that afternoon and were rewarded with fantastic views of the cliffs
and some beautiful vegetation changes as we followed the
escarpment around. Sunday we woke to a great sunrise with low
cloud in the valley and clear blue skies for the rest of the day. We
really enjoyed all the views and took lots of photos as we retraced
our steps back to Goomburra.
Great company, great walk. Thanks guys. Barbara Makepeace.
Daves Creek Circuit 8 June 2003
The weather could not have been better for the eleven of us to
start the walk from Binna Burra at 9 am as planned, down the
Border Track to the turn off for Daves Creek Circuit.
We had morning tea and got to know the 2 visitors, then carried
on to enjoy the great and spectacular views. We took a short
detour to Molongolee Cave then on to the Numinbah lookout with
terrific views of the Numinbah valley.
We walked round to Surprise Rock, then over the top of it and
down the tree. Everyone had their own way to climb down. One
member who shall be nameless (she is from Sydney) had a bit of
a problem, legs a bit short, but she made it OK.
We finished back at Binna Burra about 1:30 & back to Canungra
for-coffee. Thanks to everyone for coming & making it such a
good day also thanks to the drivers. John

 Bushwalking Insurance 2003-04
Insurance
The Queensland Bushwalkers Club is affiliated with the
Queensland Federation of Bushwalking Clubs, which in turn is
associated with the Bushwalking Federations in the other States.
QBW has just over 100 members. There are over 2,000
bushwalkers in Queensland and just over 25,000 Australia wide.
This larger number has greater bargaining power than one
solitary club in obtaining the best possible deal under the present
circumstances.
Personal Accident (PA) Insurance cover was renewed on the
same terms as last year, except that the following activities are no
longer included - canyoning, caving, rock climbing,
mountaineering, white water rafting/kayaking. The removal of
these activities has resulted in a premium reduction of $1.00 per
member, compared to the original quotation.
The total annual cost of PA cover, including the insurer's
premium, GST, stamp duty and the broker's commission for
managing claims works out at $3.00 per member, up from $2.60
for 2002-03.
With Public Liability (PL) Insurance there has been some
significant concessions, but there has been some hardening of
terms in other areas. The excess for each claim has been
increased from $1,000 to $2,000.
The total annual cost of PL works out at $5.50 per member, up
from $4.00 for 2002-03.
Note: Skiing and abseiling are covered under PA but not under
PL. These two activities have been retained under PA because of
the large number of clubs in Australia wanting to conduct them.
It is possible for clubs to run skiing and abseiling activities
through a third party commercial provider who has PL cover, or
clubs may seek to obtain separate PL cover for themselves.
There is a possibility that clubs can take out additional cover for
skiing (including walking in the snow) and abseiling. This is
currently being negotiated.
Personal Accident Insurance
The following activities are included:
Bushwalking
Canoeing
Snow Skiing
Bicycle Touring
Track Clearance
Scouting
Swimming
Previewing Walking Trips
Abseiling
Leadership Navigation Courses
There is no "above the snowline" exclusion in this policy so all
activities in the schedule can be conducted in snow.
The following activities are not included
Canyoning
Caving
Rock Climbing
Mountaineering
White Water Rafting/Kayaking
The age exclusions for members 5 years and under and 80 years
and over remain. These are standard for all PA cover for sporting
and recreational activities. However, clubs taking PA cover need
to include all members including those under 5 and other 80 in
their PA in order to have "member to member " PL cover (see
explanation later).
Page 6 of 6
Public Liability Insurance
The following activities are included:
Bushwalking
Bicycle Touring
Swimming
Rafting is no longer excluded and it has been confirmed
that the ocean is not classed as "white water", so sea kayaking,
canoeing, rafting and liloing are all covered.
"Leadership and navigation courses" has been extended
to cover all internal club training courses (by members for
members) relating to all activities in the schedule.
"Scouting and previewing walking trips" has been
extended to cover previewing all activities in the schedule,
provided no use of tools or equipment are involved (this needs to
be clarified to ensure use of navigation aids, GPS etc are OK).
The use of ropes on walks has been clarified and
extended to include the following 4 uses, but abseiling in any form
is excluded. It is a strict condition that no insured club or its
members may leave any rope or other mechanical aid behind for
use by other persons. This does not include posts, signs, and
arrows etc that are left purely for information or guidance.
1. Use of a permanent, fixed rope or cable (installed by
others) as a handrail along steep and/or slippery sections of a
walking track.
2. Use of a rope to raise or lower packs to make ascending
and/or descending steep and/or slippery sections of a walking
track safer and easier.
3. Use of a belay rope, either tied to a secure anchor or held
by experienced person(s) to assist walkers ascend or
descend steep and/or slippery sections of a walking track.
4. Use of a rope and harness as a safety precaution for
nervous or inexperienced walkers when ascending or
descending steep and/or slippery sections of a walking track.
Specific conditions have been included in relation to
attendance at protest rallies in line with previous advice on cover
for social activities. All other administrative and social activities as
per our recent negotiations are still covered.
Track clearance and track maintenance
Restoration of some Professional Liability cover - "Errors
and Omissions" is now covered to a limit of $250,000.
The following activities are not included
Abseiling
Snow Skiing
The "above the snowline" exclusions remain unchanged,
despite vigorous negotiation to allow walking in light snow
conditions. The insurer is completely inflexible in this area and will
not entertain any cover for activities in the snow. Fortunately this
does affect us in Queensland but is a major problem for the
southern States.
Track construction is specifically excluded.
"Member to member" PL cover for clubs that do not
have PA insurance. This means that if one club member sues
another club member for negligence resulting in injury or loss,
then there is no cover. The club and its officers (including
leaders) will be covered. The insurer would not offer "member to
member" PL cover at a higher premium in lieu of PA insurance.
PL cover for visitors. The club and its members will be
covered if sued by a visitor, or as a result of the actions of a
visitor, but the visitor will have no PL cover. This makes the
current "three activity" limit redundant. It may be essential that
clubs adopt a new policy of requiring all visitors to sign an
"acknowledgment of risk" waiver every time they attend club
activities. The Committee is currently seeking further advice
about this.
