A group of friends from the ANPS ACT visited Mallacoota over the weekend to plan for a full-on field trip in August this year. The weather yesterday was ungood, and there was a power failure last night: welcome to East Gippsland! The weather today was a little better in that it wasn't raining but the wind was gusting up to 40kph (at home - it has been much higher than that at Gabo Island). However we trotted out to Shipwreck Creek to do a loop track there (which I had seen on a map but not walked all of). Here is a map of where we went, courtesy of eBird. The walk is essentially in three parts as indicated, As we descended to the beach some quite attractive fungi were growing on a tree trunk. I suspect the tree is beyond "unwell". The best fit to photos in " Tasmanian Fungi " is to Antrodiella zonata but I didn't take the undersurface! I had been worried that the creek across the beach might be high but there was a nice sand ridge blocking it....
