Newnes to Cape Horn Jun 2016

We're heading to Newnes for a 3 day traverse of the Capertee-Wolgan divide finishing at Cape Horn. Day 1 is an easier day camping at the Mt Dawson camp caves. Day 2 we'll see how far we get and camp somewhere on the divide. Day 3 we descend onto Cape Horn (hopefully) and back to the Wolgan Road.
