Manton Dam
Sunday, 11 July 2021
Diverse environment around very pretty lake; interesting rocky knolls; lightly wooded; plentiful birds / dingoes / wallabies / occasional piggies. Beware metals in rocks can affect compass bearings. Easy course NOT suitable for prams. Download MapRunF course prior to leaving Darwin. (MapRunF - Select Event - Northern Territory - 2021 - Manton Dam 11th July)
