User's notes

Not 100% on the specific location due to the passage of time. We did approach from the west, so it is pretty close. My apologies.

Wow what a stand! X.glauca is the local one I think.

And a story to boot @Tapirlord! The “road” where these are was very narrow and winding, so I went back for the photo and jagged a shard of a shale-type rock in tyre of a brand new 4WD!
Thankful for the tyre pressure monitoring system that gave me the confidence to get to the top of the hill for a flat spot (aka muddy drainage ditch) to change the wheel…
Memories made and photo captured (not knowing about Nature Mappers future at the time)…

Keep on accidentally tapping the wrong thing as I'm scrolling down and then can't delete it

In fact, I don't even know how I entered a name for this one. Wasn't even trying to ID it

I've deleted the ID, perhaps I'll mention something to Aaron about this.

Hi @Tapirlord bug or something related to @Grassman 's device, like a tablet bumping while scrolling?

This may be Barrington Tops. There is a very significant swarm of X. glauca subsp. glauca across the north-eastern face of Mount Cabre Bald.
