Mt Banks

This was last 3 weekends ago when we were driving in the other side of the Blue Mountains. It was a sunny day when we started our trip but when we were in the Blue Mountains the weather was completely the opposite. It was stormy with gusty winds, on and off showers and quite cold. Part of the storm had also dropped some hail but glad it didn't last that long. We still drove despite of the weather condition to reach our destination and while on our way, we past this sign (below) and thought to drop by to satisfy our curiosity of the place.
The drive on a narrow and dirt road was paid off with the breathtakingly beautiful views of the mountain and its surroundings. It was really worth the drive. There was a small picnic area as what the sign says, with couple of picnic tables and chairs, but it was quiet due to the weather condition, except for the two people who were preparing theirselves for a trip to climb up to the mountain. With my interest to snap few pictures, I was the only one who decided to scramble out of the car, and after taking few snaps we drove off to our destination. I hope some day if time permits we can visit the place again and stay a bit longer to enjoy the beauty of nature.
