No question at all, I'm totally being reactionary. I was there once for about an hour; we got lost being 'guided' in, couldn't make head nor tail of the routes, then the line I finally lead was good right up until the sandy top out. It was also in the sort of spot I was happy to write it off. Like Arapiles, which I keep finding reasons to hate, it was miles away from home, and there was heaps of good stuff in between. It was far more convenient to forget about it entirely and concentrate on what was at hand instead.
