User's notes

On Clancy's track through Wildflower Patch 1 which is one of the highest conservation value site in this area with endangered and rare species and orchids - traces indicate frequent horse riding from south - perhaps from the government horse holding paddock - to the old farm dam, trampling the edges of the dam, and continue along the informal track to the track east / uphill of the dam.

Can't be feral - it's wearing shoes. :-)

yes Mike we try to document illegal horse riding in this area so that PCS can take action.
