Adelaide Bushwalkers is a bushwalking club based in Adelaide, South Australia. Founded in 1946, one of the oldest bushwalking clubs in Australia. They have contributed to environmental causes such as tree planting, park proclamations and the mapping of remote areas in South Australia, including Wilpena Pound. In 1957 they produced a detailed map of Wilpena Pound which included creeks, ridges, tracks, prominent features and water supplies. The Tourist Bureau printed the map. They marked and cut a track to the summit of St Mary Peak. In 1959 further tracks were cut to nearby Mt Ohlssen-Bagge, and further afield in Mambray Creek and Waterfall Gully.〔Adelaide Bushwalkers, ("Adelaide Bushwalkers: 50 Years, 1946 – 1996" ), Adelaide Bushwalkers, 7/5/2014〕 In 1966 they used a theodolite and aneroid barometers to establish spot heights of mountain peaks between Brachina Gorge and Parachilna Gorge, in the Flinders Ranges. They also suggested Aboriginal names for many of the features.〔Government of South Australia, ("Place Names Online, South Australian Gazetteer" )〕 As a club they are supported mostly by volunteers. Walk leaders are mentored by other recognised leaders. Their speciality is multi-day hikes carrying packs and camping out, often off track across private land (with landowner permission). They also do day walks, kayaking and cycling. They walk around Adelaide and South Australia, including the Mt Lofty Ranges, Flinders Ranges, Coroong and Riverland. They also conduct walks in the Grampians in western Victoria. Club members also organise walks to Tasmania, Victoria, the Australian Alps, New Zealand and the Himalyala in India and Nepal. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Adelaide Bushwalkers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
