Hi Liz,
Good to see the Townsville club will be making the trip north.
We're taking our chances on the northern beaches and made a booking for there some
time back.
We've been to Carins and the surrounds many times in the past but only as late
in the year as early October. Certainly a common pattern I recollect up in
the Athertons is that it can be cloudy/foggy in the morning as it hangs over the
rainforest and I gather the hope is that is that if there is cloud that it is sufficiently
low on the mountains so that when you look across them from Mt Carbine that it
won't get in the way?
One of our Cairns forum members might be able to advise what tends to happen
at that locale at that time of year in the morning when looking Easterly.
I think we would have all been happier if this was taking place in June/July
and least we could have gone for a swim.
Best Regards
Gary
