Members of EHS recently had a Field Trip discovering many historical features of the Gillies Highway, Gordonvale, Mulgrave Historical Society Museum, early Packers Camp and Red Bank landing areas.
4. A drive to the Packers Camp area and Red Bank landing. We finished with a drive across the Mulgrave River on the highway to the little town of Allomba following the old highway. Then crossed Behana Creek to the picnic parking area for a final chat about the day. Many old buildings and the sugar mill feature in the town.

2. Morning tea was enjoyed beside the Little Mulgrave River. Next was a drive up the Goldsborough Valley area to the Mulgrave River where the Fisheries Bridge is. This was near the first crossing for Robsons Track in the early years. Next was a drop by at Riverstone which was the location of the shanty.

1.
We started from Yungaburra, first stop towards the beginning of Gillies range was where one of the road work camps had been (grass area across the road), then Robsons Track pull off area, Hells gate rock and visited the Little Mulgrave Hotel and viewed the historical photographs and items. Trip organizer, Rene, had prepared a map which was very informative listing various features as we travelled down.
