Round Mountain



Late in August (before too many snakes had started to get active) I again ventured over Round Mountain. I really cannot recommend a trail which is safe enough for the general public. Yes I loved the adventure, many wildflowers and I scoured the slopes for a hint of track to make it easier, but nothing came easy. Rewarding vistas were readily available to the hinterland, over Cudgen Lake and over Bogangar. The Round Mountain trig point marker had been damaged and the mountain is littered with hazards in the form of fallen branches ankle twisting rocks hidden under flattened grass but thankfully no snakes. Knowing how arduous the summit climb is, I now think that we should concentrate on defining a trail to the smaller hilltop closer to the village. Judy Ros and Gary have left some marker tape leading to the smaller hill. Before we add this as a trail we hope to find the safest route. I have some pictures from both hilltops for you to compare. Apologies for the picture quality but I only took my phone this time.

How to Label and Link a Post to a Page

South Precinct Heath biodiversity rising above past fires.
The idea of this post is to explain how the collection of posts and pages will be linked together by a labelling structure.

The analogy to think of is that of a tree.

The pages are the branches and we will stick leaves on (blog posts) using labels (sap?) to attach them to the right branch.

I expect we will have a lot of photos and videos created so it should look spectacular cataloging and capturing all the interesting bits and pieces of our unique trails.

For example the photo above is this posts feature image which I have captioned. I have added all the available labels excluding "admin" which is just for minutes and I guess training type posts like this one.

If I really wanted to label the post about the diversity of the heath accurately I would put a cross in the 3 boxes below. So it really should just be labelled "Southern Precinct", "POI", "Photos" and "Flora".


Label Structure
Lake Precinct,
Village Precinct,
Southern Precinct,
Western Precinct
POI,

Photos,


X

Maps,




History,




Flora,


X

Fauna,






To link the post to page I would create something called Anchor Text (say Heath Biodiversity) in three spots under each heading on the Southern Precinct page, then hyperlink the post to the page in the three  spots. See example below.




Don't worry I will need to

  1. Show how to do it in person, 
  2. Then do it together, 
  3. Then I should watch you do it by yourself. 

After doing it three times this way together you will have the hang of it.

PS This is only a draft structure I should add. We can change it to what ever you think best suits but I'm just taking the lead to create something to start with.
