	IRMMA Abstract: Stuart Johnston and Roger Good
		The clearing of vegetation and the disturbance/removal of topsoil from TransGrid’s easements in the Snowy and Brindabella Ranges in March 2001 presented a significant rehabilitation challenge for TransGrid, the NSW national Parks and Wildlife Service and NSW Soil Services.
		The results of the work carried out needed to be in sympathy with both national parks management objectives and the maintenance needs of the transmission line easements.
		From the extensive clearing and subsequent rehabilitation program, and with the input experts from a range of disciplines, many lessons in ecological restoration have been learnt and guidelines for future programs for both industry and conservation agencies developed.

	Wildlife Sighting
		The Brindabella Ranges near Canberra are the most northern extremes of the frogs area and it is hear that we sometimes spot these strange creatures.
		As they are very well camouflaged with their grey bodies and red heads (males) we normally spot them only after they've given a squawk - which by the way sounds like a creaky door or cork being pulled from a bottle.
		It is fairly rare but known to inhabit the wet gullies around the Brindabella Ranges.

		When traversing the Brindabella Ranges in the ACT aboard a CRF450X last year the bike let me get away with things that I hadn’t thought were possible within the realms of my limited dirt riding abilities.
		I gave it the nod, as the extra power of the bike is welcome when out for a casual trail ride away from the tighter confines of the track.
		This is all good quality gear that is around the middle of the price ranges compared to a lot of the other gear on the market except perhaps the boots which are a little more in the upper range price bracket.
