Erica Removal Gordon River Road

Saturday 16 November 2013

The original plan was to remove Erica at sites along Holley Rd near Strathgordon  in conjunction with PWS,.  We thought arrangements were all in place but on arrival discovered this was not the case. We would not be able to work on the Holley Rd site due to the need to have PWS vehicles to drive along the rough sections of track to the site.

Instead the Erica near the roadside along the Gordon River Rd was tackled.  The work was the 15k section from the Needles saddle to 2k past Scotts Peak Rd.  The extent of the work was to about the 45k mark from the visitor centre entrance.
