Description

Multiple boulders along walking track or a little up into bush.

Approach

Take MRWT walking track down from small car park on Mount Macedon Rd about 200m north of the Cameron Drive/Memorial Cross turnoff. Most of the boulders can be found on the uphill side of track (left when approaching from the Mount Macedon Rd car park, right from the Cameron Drive car park end), some are slightly uphill into the bush. Egg Boulder is on the downhill side of track.

This track is about 1.6km long and runs around the north side of Camel's Hump, eventually coming to the main car park on Cameron Drive.

History

History timeline chart

Many of the blocks including the now named Snot Blok were cleaned and climbed back in the 90's by Martin Lama, who after returning from his first trip to Hueco Tanks needed a local fix and in doing so scoured the whole hillside.

Good chance though given how quickly the boulders here return to their natural state, that many were discovered and climbed even earlier.
