The hike should take approximately 1.5hrs to complete. “We got the call to come and help about 1.30.” VRA personnel headed up to Green Camp and when they got there police and ambulance personnel had already started up the Yulludunida Track. “Millions of Australians are doing it really […] September 5, 2020 Yulludunida Walking Track – hard 4km return This hard walk starts from Green Camp car park and climbs up through woodland to the base of the Yulludunida 'crater'.

Green Camp in Mount Kaputar National Park, is the base for walkers hiking the spectacular Yulludunida walking track. The community is familiar with the role of the VRA volunteers in a range of emergency situations but recently the VRA members played a key role in the multi agency rescue of the injured bushwalker in the Mt Kaputar National Park.Darkness was closing in when Narrabri VRA member Megan Davies and National Parks and Wildlife Service senior field officer, Alastair Hillard, began their walk and scramble across wet and slippery rocks down the side of Mt Yulludunida escorting two bushwalkers through trackless bush back to waiting vehicles.Clattering off into the distance behind them was the Toll Ambulance Helicopter Rescue Service chopper carrying an injured third bushwalker to Tamworth hospital.Emergency services were called out about midday on Friday, July 17 to respond to a report that a bushwalker had been injured in a fall in the Mt Yulludunida crater area.A trio of bushwalkers, a husband and wife and their friend, were doing the Skyline Traverse, up the Yulludunida Walk, two kilometres ‘almost straight up.’At the end of the trail walkers can scramble up the rocks for about another two kilometres over the summit of Mt Yulludunida and then down. The rocky scramble to the top is a lot of fun and is a bit of a choose your own adventure. It is tasked to over 3000 missions a year by NSW Ambulance, ACT Ambulance and NETS (Newborn and Paediatric Emergency Transport Service).A future jobs bonanza is expected to be created on the back of an almost $17 million investment for stage one of Narrabri Shire Council’s Northern New South Wales Inland Port. Mr Kean said the joint initiative with TOMRA automated recycling sorting system will provide much needed funds for three of Australia’s most respected charities, Oz Harvest, The Salvation Army and Beyond Blue “Three-quarters of NSW residents are already returning and earning. Spectacular panoramic views for hundreds of kilometers Amazing hike to the summit of Mt Yulludunida. The hike should take approximately 3hrs to complete. When you get to the rock scramble follow the rocks (cans) to the summit if unsure of path. The first half through the bush is a constant climb, peppered with beautiful view points on the way. “This happened about 12.30,” said Megan. It was getting time critical as darkness was falling, which would have made a winch recovery of the patient problematic.“Our options were to get the patient out in the helicopter before dark or spend the night on the mountain,” said Megan.“Thankfully, the helicopter arrived literally right on dusk and they were able to winch the patient out.”In the meantime, a crew of two special operations paramedics from Tamworth had also come and had started hiking up the track, prepared with all the gear to spend the night on the mountain with the bushwalkers if winching hadn’t been possible.“Thankfully they weren’t needed but we were all ready to spend the night up there,” said Megan.“The bushwalkers were very well equipped, properly dressed and kitted out but obviously didn’t expect to spend a night on the mountain.”The Toll chopper winched a medical officer down and the patient was fitted with her harness and lifted back on board to be flown to Tamworth Hospital.Then it was a trip back down the mountain in the dark for Megan, Alastair and the two remaining bushwalkers.They had just enough light to see as the sun was setting. It will become the premier industrial and logistics hub development in North West NSW. Really enjoyed this trail. “One said ‘what does VRA stand for?’ as we chatted on the way down.”While Megan and NPWS Field Officer Alastair were the only two emergency services personnel to walk into the bushwalkers, other VRA members were in support along with other emergency services personnel.The rescuers and rescued were back to Green Camp about 6.30pm.The Narrabri VRA is always keen to hear from potential new members and was pleased to recently welcome new member Harry Smith, VRA captain John Hardgrave said.Toll Ambulance Rescue operates a fleet of eight Agusta Westland 139 helicopters from four bases across NSW and ACT (Sydney, Canberra, Orange, Wollongong).The service provides rescue, retrieval and expert medical care to the community.
