Shep's Hill fencing
I noticed the Botany Council's Sydney Airport Operations guys were putting fencing up around Shep's Hill yesterday evening.
You can still drive up onto the hill from below at the end of the road and from in front of the tower entrance, but the fencing is designed to stop people (test driving Toyota Prados perhaps?) from entering the area across the soft and sandy bits. Those of you attending the spotters weekend, watch the really soft area in the middle behind the smaller mound! |
My suggestion, would be to keep your car well away from the sandy mound altogether. Might save you some embarrassment!
|
There is, of course, one easy way around that...

With the current forecast? You can have it!
:D |
I saw what I will call an "over-ambitious" dad in a Holden ute try and show off to his son and drive through that soft sandy patch and try to be a daddy hero.
Lets just say if this guy was Superman he'd have his undies around his ankles. The act of heroism ended up with the ute being bogged down to the underside of the car and a rather displeased NRMA guy having to tow him out. |

Looks ominous...

As you can see, it's extremely soft down at Shep's Hill... Don't get yourself bogged. Here is Man vs Wild earlier today :D

Nah, recovery strap round the old john thomas will get him out of there, maybe even before you start the 4wd attached to the other end.....
