B5R111-3 Ginninderra Falls Trail
Trails cut and railings all by Rob Calwell..
Agfa film
I worked here casually on weekends as a ranger for a couple of years in the 1980s
The trails and signposting was all laid out by an engineer named Rob Caldwell. He lived at the old Parkwood Homestead.
He constructed the picnic shelters from the concrete formwork used to build the Belconnen Mall Carparks.
He signposted the trails and made a small brochure to hand out with the ticket sales for the entrance fee. See below.
Along the trails are signposted Lookouts, labels for plants and trees and warning signs and handrails.
I used to take the entrance fees near the gate, describe the walks and hand out the small brochure and map you can see below.
When he hired another Ranger to mn the gate I would drive down Cusacks Crossing track, sometimes with the kids and hire out the canoes.
During the warm weather I would sell cold drinks from the beach or a canoe and on colder days I had a fire going from which I would "boil the billy" and sell cups of tea.
