Stories Arising from Working Bees on the George Haddock Track
This group of stories is a collection from various trips to Fraser Island between 2010 and 2015 to survey and develop the 52km George Haddock Track for hikers stretching from Lake Garawongera in the south to Arch Cliffs on the shores of Hervey Bay at the mouth of Bowarrady Creek.
