Mt Wilson, Blue Mountains NSW Australia.
We finally made a quick trip to majestic Mt Wilson during autumn colour and captured some rather interesting magic looking mushrooms. The tantalising colour spectical wasn't bad either.
A brief historical account found the early European settlers had difficulty reaching Mt Wilson and Mt Irvine, however there is much evidence that indigenous people camped in the area.
There are many rock carvings and paintings, implement-sharpening grooves, and stone axe-heads to be found among the caves and forests, and chips of chert, a rock not of this district, have been found along creek banks.
The area was named Mt Wilson in honour of John Bowie Wilson, member of the Legislative Assembly in NSW and the Minister for Lands.
The area eventually was a haven for the wealthy used primarily as their summer retreat. Current population stands at 81.
If you don't like the hustle and bustle of the tourist crowd, Mt Wilson is best visited during weekdays.
