Explore the Grose river close to the Devils Wilderness.

From Paterson Range fire trail we will take the Donna Track to the Grose River. From the track the drop down (400 mtrs) to the Grose will be off track and require some exploration.

We will then explore a section of the Grose to the north, looking for an exit (400 mtrs ascent) on an old unnamed fire trail. If this proves impossible we will return the same way we came in.

Some of this walk will involve rock scrambling along the river edge and route finding.
