Cahill's & power

Cahill's lookout is no good if you have a lot of gear and need power - it has a parking area on the side of the road with a line of stumps or logs stopping cars driving into the picnic area which has trees and is not good.

If you want power you'll have to either bring a motorcycle battery or else maybe setup beside the car.

On the occasions I was there I used to carry stuff down to the lookout - it's a concrete path maybe 50-100 metres max, dead straight with a few steps. At the end is a big concrete pad, very good horizons.

If you're going for a serious session with a pile of gear then I'd strongly suggest for Hargreaves at the end of Shipley Plateau, and I'll see you there. Its a half hour from Katoomba but its worth it at this time of year since it will be reasonably warm. Means I had better book dinner in Blackheath.
