To avoid passing through the property of the rabbit fence worker's house near the border, keep initially to the south of the border fence and do so for about 1km where a gate allows for an easy crossing. A steep climb leads to a rainforest clad knoll followed by a further ascent to over 700m. A second hill is then climbed and water can be obtained from a water tank at this point. 915660. A further blue tank is located after the next knoll closer to Long Creek falls but this is regarded locally as a bit dodgy.
Due to the narrow and precipitous terrain to the east of Long Creek Falls, the fence has to be maintained on foot here and is known by locals as the "Missing Link". The narrow razorback is clad in Hoop Pines in an otherwise very dry location. Long Creek Falls are apparently accessible from the west, the saddle at 894673 provides for some great views of the falls.
A long climb leads to 3 small knolls. Count them because after the third knoll, a small walk over the other side of the rabbit fence of about 80m leads to Long Ck which is usually always flowing at this point. After another knoll or two, an avocado farm is passed. At the point of writing 2002, the farmer is quite friendly to walkers so respect his property and privacy and watch out for his dogs!
The walk to this point involves many ups and downs but the worst is yet to come. At 841669 is a steep up and down known locally as the "Big Dipper", after a long day this section leaves you feeling wasted. Several kilometres of mainly descending follows. Before ascending to Mt Tanna, a nice campsite on open paddocks can be located by following the right branch when the road forks and following this road for 10 minutes. Mt Tanna can be climbed by following the fence for a peak bagging exercise. The campsite is on private land so permission should be sought.
From the campsite, follow the road that contours the base of Mt Tanna until back to the rabbit board fence. After another half hour of walking, a short ascent leads to a long flat section that ends up with lovely views of Mt Barney and Mt Lindsay. You will soon descend quickly to the saddle with Mt Glennie. The fence turns sharply to climb to Mt Glennie through open forest. The top of the fence ascent is marked by rainforest and a gate that must be negotiated. The main Glennie ridge is followed and the fence drops sharply towards Mt Lindsay at a small saddle. A 10 minute ascent up the old fence here leads to Glennie's Chair. A lovely rock pinnacle of which I have been unable to find a proper ascent route yet.
The rabbit board fence can be followed all the way to Lindsay Border Gate from here.
To access Mt Lindsay, park at the border gate, follow the border fence until there is no gully between the fence and the major ridge on the left and hop the fence and ascend that ridge. A well worn track leads to the base of the cliffs.
