Majors Creek and Araluen

Today, I headed out for a ride with David Hawkins. The plan was to reach Majors Creek and descend into Araluen, taking the bitumen route on the way down and then exiting via Majors Creek Mountain Rd (a dirt road). Unfortunately, we had to turn back partway down as the fog was too thick to navigate safely. Later, we found out that Majors Creek Mountain Rd still hasn’t reopened to Majors Creek due to landslide damage from a major storm.
After regrouping, we rejoined my planned route into Braidwood and stopped for a quick bite at the bakery. We then made our way home via the Tallaganda State Forest, tackling a few creek crossings along the way. Mulloon Creek was the deepest of the crossings, though it was manageable—just about up to the axles.
Despite the occasional sketchiness from the fog, it was an excellent ride overall.
