  CMW Guide to Bushwalking

  The club has put together a CMW Guide To Bushwalking with information on how to join a walk, what to  take, suggestions on   food that will keep you sustained, etiquette in the bush, map and compass use, together with a checklist of gear to take on a   typical walk.

  People new to overnight walking will find the guide particularly useful, and will hopefully answer many of your questions.
